Google Pixel Watch 2 Opening Procedure

Remove both watch bands by pressing the release button and sliding the band out of its groove.

Secure your watch with a small vise so the jaws go into the watch band grooves on the frame.

Use a hair dryer or heat gun to heat the right edge of screen around the watch crown until it's slightly too hot to touch.

Insert the tip of an iFlex between the screen and frame just below the watch crown (opposite the side button).

Rotate the iFlex so its longer edge is between the screen and frame.

Hold the iFlex at a slight upward angle and slide it clockwise around the perimeter of the watch to separate the adhesive. Stop when you reach the side button.

Remove your watch from the vise.

Consider placing your watch on something soft like a clean cloth to help stabilize it and prevent damage.

Attach and remove the watch bands as needed to get a better grip or stabilize your watch.

Swing open the screen and put it in an upright position next to the watch crown.

Use a spudger and tweezers to remove all the old screen adhesive from the frame and screen. Then, clean up any adhesive residue with high‑concentration (>90%) isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab.

You'll need to seal your watch with strong adhesive glue. Apply the glue to the perimeter of the frame and firmly press the screen into place.
