Citizen Watch C300 Miyota CP00 Battery Replacement Tutorial | Watch Repair Channel

[@RampartPh]

Is the battery used in the nighthawk similar to this? Great vid although i think i would've used some finger condoms for this procedure as a precaution. Still this is very helpful. Thanks!

[@stormytempest3907]

Superb job! Lovely tools.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks

[@katsumoto31]

@@SolimBD thanks for the video. Please just wanted to ask regarding the back cover, it is written that you should shot + and AR twice to reset. But you didn't do it on the video. Can you please clarify it for us? Please

[@heklik]

Mine LCD have a burn, can it be replaced ?

[@ioanardelean1936]

Great video.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks sir🌹

[@pontiacdriver999]

I thought that all Eco-Drive watches took the rechargeable capacitor-style batteries?

[@flybobbie1449]

Not eco.

[@njkip]

I took mine to a jeweller to change the battery....he charged me £120 ....told me it had to be sent away to citizen as it was complicated and needed setting up ....think I was ripped off....😳😳

[@SolimBD]

Thank you so much

[@njkip]

After watching your video on how to replace the battery and reset the watch I'm going to do mine myself this time...can't believe they charged me £120 last time to get it done. I see you used the same case seal....what was it you did when you put it in the case with the sponge foam...I've been trying to locate a new seal but don't know what part number it is...so if it's ok to use the same seal I'll just get a new battery...thanks so much for showing us how to do this....it's amazing...

[@stephenward3468]

A battery costs about £2 he ripped you off and added his labour cost.As a bench jeweller i do my own and friends watch battery changes and watch strap adjustments.

[@stephenward3468]

I bought the battery and fitted it myself.Battery cost me £3.50.You GOT RIPPED OFF BIG TIME.I am a bench jeweller by trade and there are RIPOFF JEWELLERS IN THE TRADE unfortunately.

[@karolynmorales3795]

Note he’s using plastic tweezers for the battery because you can short circuit the battery if metal touches the bottom of battery also very important when doing capacitors (rechargeable battery) great video thanks 🙏🏽

[@nicholasbondurant]

no finger condoms tho.

[@sonycans]

I have the exact same model and I have had this for fifteen years however over the past three years I have left it in the sun to keep it charged. The watch out out by only 8 seconds in that time which is simply amazing.

[@jesuscorrea5513]

I have had the same model since 2001. These are not the eco drive version. The next Gen after this model are the eco-drives. Guess they sold a ton. I now have a collection of eco drives. The best in my opinion.

[@snmr1318]

@@jesuscorrea5513 totally agree! I have the new Citizen titanium flat and super titanium chronos with black or blue face all analog dials, but I also have numerous older AnaDigi watches like the C650 flighthawk and skyhawk in pristine condition. Love that retro slide rule calculator! Not a ton of money, but look great on the wrist and very accurate. My C650s are as accurate as the new ones.

[@flybobbie1449]

My watch the two buttons on the left stopped working, have sent it to Citizen for repair.

[@555skipper]

Hi Solim, thanks for posting this video, my question where do you purchase the gasket , or what did you use to lubricate it. thanks.

[@EForchetto]

I'd guess some kind of silicone oil or grease. Mineral oils and stuff like Vaseline would tend to attack the rubber. I imagine the reason is the same we use for lubricating the oil seal when we change the car's oil filter canister: Stops the rubber dragging and picking-up when tightening.

[@RBEmerson]

I'm puzzled. On the inside of the back are instructions to short the (+) side of the battery to the point marked AR. Step two is set the watch to CHR and pull (M). You didn't do either. Why is that?

[@katsumoto31]

I was going to ask the same thing too. Because I wanted to see it clearly on video,but now I'm confused

[@LXBful]

Strangely, I had to do the above 2 steps (I contacted (+) to the lowest of the 4 bronze coloured circles). Step cleared some strange/incomplete LCD display. Step 2 resulted in a "beep" and hand movement (not sure what that was for..).

[@ismailtasyurek1255]

İs it eco drive ?

[@SolimBD]

No

[@ricardodouglas3872]

Where coil beep ?

[@keyshanaisyahchanel4248]

How much?

[@SolimBD]

I'm not seller

[@ricardodouglas3872]

excellent work, but the one is on the spring because the eu doesn't make the beep anymore

[@ProfessorChatur]

I have this same watch and it's not working what should I do I found it in my house while cleaning.

[@SolimBD]

Replace the battery

[@ProfessorChatur]

​@@SolimBDbro do you know how much citizen will charge for battery replacement

[@SolimBD]

800 to 1000 BDT

[@Трахтибидох-ш5и]

son shouts happily to his father, daddy, I found the watch! Well done, son! Put them back! 😂

[@roblatour8696]

I think that's a fake. All citizen blue angels watches I know have snap on backs and eco drive. This watch uses a battery not a capacitor. Please correct me if I am wrong.

[@SolimBD]

C300 not eco-drive

[@guachito33]

This is not an eco drive. This watch is from the 90’s. It’s a regular quartz battery watch

[@JackAndTheBeanstalkr]

you're wrong... there you're corrected.

[@fernandoluiz4719]

Muito obrigado por ensinar como se abre e se fecha um relógio.

[@bogdanb6415]

Thanks mate, helpt me a lot Such a shame these are not mechanical

[@greyman1363]

Mechanical blow for edc . Sucks this model isn’t eco drive .

[@bkeati7]

Thanks very helpful. stay safe..

[@greyman1363]

This model looks good but sucks it’s not eco drive

[@flybobbie1449]

Before eco, mine is about 13 years old now.

[@rasstriga]

Тут что-то не так 🤔 Почему в эко драйве стоит не перезаряжаемый аккумулятор, а обычная батарея?

[@SolimBD]

This watch not Eco-Drive

[@rasstriga]

@@SolimBD спасибо. Сперва не увидел, что это просто кварц. Имхо кварц без возможности солнечной подзарядки - это тупиковая ветвь развития технологий в часах.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks

[@hariji3139]

how to see the digital time in night?

[@SolimBD]

This watch light not available

[@ethanparker2362]

Thank you.

[@marcoscuadros4834]

Existen varias marcas de baterías mejores que ”renata" de mejor calidad y más duración , no se porqué siempre usan esa marca.

[@fernandoluiz4719]

Cuál?

[@jman8085]

Beautiful 😍

[@SolimBD]

Thank you! 😊

[@jeremyflemingii929]

😲📢 there's nothing like having the right tools for the right job!!! That was an excellent battery change! Bravo! 👍👌 I have that exact same watch...EXACTLY!!! ITS AN ECO-DRIVE ONE THOUGH.... DOES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE??? PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT, AND I WILL FOLLOW UP!!! THANK YOU MY FRIEND!!! Jeremy in VA, Virginia 🇺🇸 USA

[@SolimBD]

Eco drive is solar watch. And this is normal quartz watch. It's different from solar. Thanks for your comment. Keep watching and stay connected.

[@jeremyflemingii929]

@SolimBD thank you for clearing that up for me.... the way technology is nowdays, you can do anything!!! Thank you my friend, Jeremy in Virginia VA USA 🇺🇸 👍✌️🖖
