Timex Expedition, Changing Battery

Just changed the battery in my Timex Expedition which is now my "yard watch." Kathy has given me two nice watches that I wear to work, but the Expedition is still a favorite because it has an analog look, but the features of a digital watch including alarm, stopwatch, countdown, and perpetual date and time. I use the countdown routinely when running a sprinkler or filling up the pond.

Reminder on how to get the back case open and closed:

1) Pry open back using notch marked with arrow in upper right corner using either a strong knife blade or small screwdriver. Loosen both tiny screws upper left and upper right to remove battery.

2) Position notch opposite side of analog knob. Seal with watch between two boards in a vice grip. Slowly close vice grip and watch for back to snap in place. (May not make a sound.)

I think this Timex has lasted longer than any other I've had. I remember Carol Popp liking it when I first moved from HBS to Marketing in 2002. Also I mentioned it here on Ted's Timex post.
