Although the Ecodrive watches made by Citizen contain a rechargeable battery, after a long period of usage the battery is no longer able to hold a charge. When that occurs, it would be less expensive to replace the battery instead of buying a new watch. This guide demonstrates how to properly perform a battery replacement on a Citizen Ecodrive watch.

Using the adjustable wrench, unscrew the back face of the watch.
-
There are certain Citizen Eco-Drive watches that have a pry-off type of cover. There is a slim pry tool available for those watches. Though fairly easy to remove, putting them back on is not simple without a stach press. Please see the last step for replacing those covers.

-
For a pry-off type of watch back: to close the back, use a watch press. (The watch press tool and a set of dies costs about $15.)
-
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. Attach the die for the back on the top (the lever of the watch press) and the die for the face on the bottom (the base of the watch press).
-
Place the watch face down. Arrange the seal (if any), and put the watch back gently into position.
-
Squeeze the tool slowly and firmly until you hear it click into place. Some watches do not click, so check the progress as you squeeze.
-
To reassemble your device, follow the steps in reverse order.

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!
This worked! After placing in the sun it still was not working properly. I had to not only expose to sun but also unwind the crown, pull it out for 30s and then screw back down. No new battery needed!
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
