How To Change A Nixon Watch Battery

Nixon Watches are modern, high quality wristwatches with tight tolerances. This means it's best to have a professional watch technician change the battery for a number of reasons:

  • Tightly fitting casebacks. Almost all Nixon's have a screw down caseback that is held securely with 4-8 tiny screws. Removing this caseback on a Nixon requires the right tools and skill to remove the restraints without stripping them or accidentally slipping and scratching the case. It is sometimes possible to do with household tools - if you decide to do this - just be extra careful.
  • Fine, battery restraint arm. These watches have a small moveable arm that holds the Nixon battery in place and completes the circuit to get power to the watch caliber. This arm is very fine and requires the loosening of 1-2 small screws to move it out of the way. It's critical to do this carefully to prevent stripping the screw or slipping and damaging the watch coil.
  • Top quality battery. Most Nixons are using a size 364 battery, but it's always critical to double check. Here at WatchGnome, we always make sure to use a top quality battery like Energizer, Renata or Sony. It's also critical to change the battery without touching it with your bare hands. The best way to ensure getting the full life of your battery it to prevent getting it dirty with any oils from your hands.
  • Proper case resealing and screw tensioning. Once the Nixon battery has been changed, the next step is to replace the arm and gently retighten the retaining screw. Replace the face retainer clip and then then retighten the caseback.

Invest in a Nixon watch, invest in it's battery care

If you have invested the funds in a high quality Nixon and taken the time to find just the one you want, we recommend getting the battery changed by a reputable professional. While we 100% think that WatchGnome is the best and most efficient choice, we just care that you Nixon is properly care for.
