Christopher Ward C3 Grand Tourer Battery Replacement

[rash_decision]

Hi All, can anyone tell me how you remove the case back on the CW C3 Grand Tourer please?

I’m struggling to identify if it’s a snap back or screw down, there’s nothing obvious and I’m struggling on Google! I’m away from home working at the moment (offshore) and the watch has died, I don’t have access to a jeweller but can get Amazon deliveries! Haha.

Photo of caseback would help, have you tried emailing CW?

I haven’t emailed them yet, I am relying on the PH massive!

It's rare for a screw down back to have engravings that line up so well with the lugs, unless that is a CW photo, where it would be adjusted to line up for the pics.

If it is screw down back, you can try a ball to remove the back cover.

It’s a library photo however mine is the exact same, perfectly aligned, could that indicate a snap back? There is no little recess for a tool to go under, it’s perfectly flat against the case all the way round…?

If yours lines up as well, then you either got lucky or it is a snap back. Takes a lot of tooling to line up a screw back unless it's engraved after fitting.

You might have already found the answer, but the manual states it has a snap case back on page 4:
