    • Flip the watch over so that the face is down.

    • Using a Y#0 screwdriver, unscrew the four 3.5 millimeter tri-head screws.

    • Remember to turn off the watch to avoid being shocked.

    The warning to turn off the watch to avoid electrical shock was a joke, right?!

    The screws don't seem to be turning easily. What's the best way to loosen them without stripping them?

    Mark Franz -

    I’m going to be shocked by a dead 3.8V battery? Of course, only if the watch is powered on. Ridiculous statements like this do not reflect positively on the credibility of this entire procedure. If the author seriously thinks this is a danger then I question your basic understanding of electronics.

    • Using your finger, push forward on the release while pulling up on the strap.

    • You may find it helpful to use the flat end of a spudger to push on the release instead of your finger.

    The bracelet should be removed first!

YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE SCREWS. Step 1 is completely irrelevant.
