Step 1

Wedge an opening tool between the case of the watch, and the glass screen bezel.
Pry the screen bezel away from the device.
If you have a difficult time getting the front bezel to separate from the case, try warming the watch up with a hair dryer.
There are three very tiny springs that are compressed between holes in the case and the front bezel. They can pop out once the bezel is removed, so don't lose them! Remove them and put them somewhere safe once the bezel is removed.

Step 2

Pull the screen protector away from the device, breaking glue sealant.
Separate the screen protector from the screen.
To re-seal the glass protector's glue, simply heat the glue.

Hi, love the instructions! One question though: What method/temperature are we talking for heating it to adhere it again? Mine fell off. I have a hair blow dryer, but what’s too hot for the electronics themselves?

I have the same question! My screen just popped off and a hairdryer didn't do a thing so I'm not sure what 'just heat the glue' means or if I need to replace the glue cause it's lost something.
