Introduction
Même si les montres Ecodrive fabriquées par Citizen contiennent une batterie rechargeable, celle-ci n'est plus capable de tenir la charge après une longue période d'utilisation. Quand ceci se produit, il sera moins coûteux de changer la batterie que de racheter une nouvelle montre. Ce tutoriel montre comment effectuer correctement un remplacement de batterie sur une montre Ecodrive de Citizen.
Ce dont vous avez besoin
-
-
Retirez la pompe du bracelet de la montre pour accéder plus facilement au fond de la montre.
-
-
-
-
Remplacez la batterie par une nouvelle batterie lithium-ion.
-
Faites attention à ce que la face positive soit face à vous.
-
Quand vous réinsérez la batterie, faites attention que le connecteur en laiton soit inséré dans la fente de la batterie.
It’s not a capacitor, for Pete’s sake. It’s just a rechargeable battery. Why do people persist in referring to Ecodrive batteries as “capacitors”? Ask any electronics engineer. A battery (rechargeable or otherwise) is NOT a capacitor!

-
Pour fermer le dos, utilisez une presse d'horloger. (La presse d'horloger et un jeu de matrices coûtent environ 15 dollars).
-
Choisissez l'une des matrices qui correspond au bord extérieur de la colerette pour la face avant, et choisissez-en un autre qui correspond au bord extérieur du boîtier arrière. Fixez le poinçon pour le fond en haut (le levier de la presse d'horloger) et le poinçon pour la face en bas (la base de la presse d'horloger).
-
Placez la montre face vers le bas. Placez le joint (s'il y en a un) et remettez la montre délicatement en place.
-
Serrez l'outil lentement et fermement jusqu'à ce que vous l'entendiez s'enclencher. Certaines montres ne s'enclenchent pas, vérifiez donc la progression au fur et à mesure que vous serrez.
-
-
-
Tirez sur la couronne et laissez-la dans cette position pendant trente secondes pour mettre la montre en mode "all reset".
Where can I get/find a Stem and Crown for this identical Watch ?
If it is a push back watch (one where the back pops off, and not screwed on), there is a few things to be mindful of:
1. The back seal. It's the little rubber o-ring that is either on the back case, or inside the body of the watch. This needs to be intact, especially if the watch is water resistant. These can be gotten cheap if yours is broken or misshapen.
2. The stem: The stem attached the crown (the knob on the outside) to the inside of your watch movement. When snapping the back on, make sure the little cut out on the back case sits over the stem, otherwise it could snap in two.
3. How hard you are pushing and the front glass: Sometimes the are difficult to get back on (and may require an extra tool) to get the back case on, but sometimes they just need to be pushed on really hard. But be aware of the glass at the front of the watch as too much direct pressure with break it.
The best thing to close the back is buying a watch press tool and a set of dies which cost about $15. Buying a set of dies rather than just one helps to make sure you have the correct size.
Pick one of the dies that just fits the outer edge of the bezel for the front side, and pick another one that just fits the outer edge of the back casing. Arrange the seal (if any) and press slowly and firmly until you hear it click into place.

How about citizen c605? How to open for replace capacitor?cheers
Before doing any repairs it might be a good idea to do these:
1. Place the watch to bright sunshine for one full day the dial facing straight to the sun.
2. After the sun treatment pull the knop fully out and keep it that way for 30 seconds (or more).
3. Press the knop back in and wait for 10 seconds.
4. If the watch now works normally, you saved the battery price and your fixing work…
5. If not, you unfortunately have to do as instructed here.
Good luck!
Does the Capacitor of an Eco-drive watch has a tendency to leak?
No Generally speaking electrolitic capacitors dry out from old age but these just lose their ability to hold a charge…. no leaking
Where can I get an adjustable wrench like the one in the picture?
$16 watch tool kit on Amazon. http://a.co/icRAsX9
Harbor Freight has an inexpensive one, Jules Borel, Cas-Ker Co., Esslinger, TwinCity and McCaw are a few companies that have watch related material and supplies…..

How much it cost to buy a capacitor for ladies watch with a mother of pearl face
Hello where can i find the capacitor to my citizen eco drive wr100?tks
Amazon has stock
Thx very much this helped me to change the battery but i, have no clue wut tool to change it with?????
Großartig, vielen Dank!
Can you explain/show how to fit the Citizen capacitor battery MT516F [295-7600 ] into a Citizen Eco-Drive Normandie Swarovski Crystals Womens Stainless Steel Case and Bracelet Black Watch MODEL NO EW9780-57E. the capacity battery has two contacts on the battery - one short and one long?
Easier to install than I had imagined just make sure you line up the little gold tab with the barely visible slot in the battery compartment. A magnifying glass helps. Also, this battery is so tiny that a tweezer is just about useless. Pick up the battery with a small piece of Scotch tape and guide into position.
Works perfectly now..
So how do you get the capacitor out from under the retaining clip on a 8651M calibre movement??
Clip must be removed first. I slid mine to remove
Hello! How would the capacitor in my watch? Citizen Model : gn-0-s-9
Look in Amazon
My Eco Drive was totally different. The back snaps off but first you need to remove the band. You need the correct tool to pop of the cover. The battery had an extremely small clip on top which took some time putting back on the battery. The back did not snap back on by hand, I used a tool designed specifically for that that. Also, there was an extremely small coil spring in the watch center which is not attached… it will pop out. The ends are two different sizes so be sure it goes back correctly. All my tools were purchased at Amazon.
Would this be the same procedure for the stiletto G820-T001696 TA / 2N0600?
Thanks for posting this … I figured this had to be a relatively easy thing to do (e.g., you’re basically replacing a coin-cell “capacitor” instead of a traditional watch battery) but I was amazed at how many online comments I read suggesting that this procedure was somehow “too difficult,” or “not worth it” for Eco-drive watches. My guess is that the only thing that would make it “not worth it,” is if, e.g., the watch is damaged, and/or the movement components too badly in need of internal cleaning/maintenance to make replacing the capacitor worth the effort.

How do you change capacitor on a citizen aw1530-65e?

Hi, not completely sure about what I’m gonna say, but first remove the bracelet, to access the inner ring, then open it by following step 2 (I don’t have one to check that opening is the same though), then follow the steps which should be roughly the same for changing the capacitor.
hopes this help
Thanks a lot! I used a digital caliper, instead of the adjustable wrench. My batterie held charge for 13 years. It is amazing. :-)
THANKYOU so much for this wee tip, I need a new cell for my my Eco-Drive but i didn`t want to start buying watch repair tools, I have a caliper & it did the job in a jiffy, brilliant!
How can I remove the bottom cap of my watch womens zitizen eco
The item being replaced is a battery. The watches also have a capacitor in parallel with the battery which can drive the watch for some time while the battery is replaced. I suspect the capacitor also helps avoid pulling high (tiny high) current pulses from the battery as the hands are driven.
Hola quisiera saber cómo puedo encargar la batería de mi reloj, ustedes la venden ? Patricia Arcati
Where can i buy a Stem and Crown for exactly this Watch ?
Franz Weber
fkwandco@sbcglobal.net
the case/model number is located on the outside of the back, this will dictate all that is needed for the stem and crown, it tells the movement number
and the case number, color too, Jules Borel,Cas-Ker Co., TwinCity and McCaw are a few companies that supply watch material……

for the Eco-Drive E760 which is the correct battery to buy?
I have a Citizen Eco Drive model E784; I want to make sure that the directions listed here will address my issue; I've given my 10 year old watch over 5 hours of direct sunlight; I've pulled the crown out to position 2 for 30 seconds, then pushed in back to position 0 and the second hand does not reset; which is leading me to think that the lithium battery/capacitor needs replaced ... also, can anyone tell me what is the correct replacement battery/capacitor number/name to use? Thanks in advance for your assistance!
How much time last battery in citizen ecodrive under daylu use.?
