      • Use a Torx Plus 2IP screwdriver to remove the 3.0 mm‑long screw from both watch band grooves (two screws total).

      • Both screws have a tiny O‑ring. If they don't lift away with the screw, use a pair of tweezers to carefully remove them from the band groove and set them aside. These O-rings are required to maintain waterproofing.

      • Handle these O-rings carefully. Avoid pinching or slicing them with your tool.

      • During reassembly:

      • Make sure the O‑rings are on the screws before installing them.

      • Push down firmly on the back glass while installing the screws to make sure the glass gets properly seated.

      • If there's a gap between the back glass and frame, remove the screws and reinstall them.
