Changing a battery in an Accutron 218 series watch


Required tools
This picture shows three case wrenches.  At the top is an adjustable case wrench that can be bought from any watch supply house.  The bottom two are dedicated Accutron case wrenches.  The black one was made by Bulova and sold to service people and the steel one I made.  Only one of these is necessary to open the case of your 218.
This picture displays a pair of general purpose watchmaker tweezers and a screwdriver with a 1.5 mm blade.
Additionally, you will need an Accutron 218 series watch with a dead battery, and a fresh 344 watch battery.
