If you’re like most people, your G-Shock watch is one of your most prized possessions. It’s sturdy, reliable, and can take a beating like no other watch out there. But even the best things eventually need a little TLC, and that includes changing the battery in your G-Shock. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the process of how to change G Shock battery, so you can keep on wearing your trusty timepiece with peace of mind.<\/p>\n
G-Shock watches are a line of tough, durable watches designed to withstand the elements. They’re popular with athletes and outdoor enthusiasts because they’re built to keep ticking in the harshest conditions. Some models are even water-resistant up to 200 meters.<\/p>\n
In addition, G-Shock<\/a> watches have a unique style that’s instantly recognizable. They feature a chunky, angular design and usually come in black, white, or red. Plus, they’re loaded with features like compass tracking, altimeter readings, and stopwatch functions (this will vary on the model).<\/p>\n However, with these great features comes the downside of having to change your watch<\/a>‘s battery every four years or so or when it starts to lose time. The good news is that it’s a pretty easy process, and this guide will show you how to do it. But before you proceed, make sure to check if your model has a replaceable battery. Some G-Shock models, particularly the newer ones, have a non-replaceable battery that will need to be sent in for service if it dies.<\/p>\n If your watch has a replaceable battery<\/a>, here is a general guideline on how to remove the cover and replacing G Shock battery at the same time as most common G-Shock models.<\/p>\n -The very first thing to do is to locate your watch’s battery compartment. The cover is usually located on the back of the watch and can be removed with a flathead screwdriver or coin (depending on the model).<\/p>\n -Next, if there are screws holding down the cover, remove them and set them aside for now. Avoid losing these screws as they are meant to be returned later. If there aren’t any screws holding down the cover, then use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry off it from its housing. Be very careful not to damage the surrounding components while doing this. If you’re having trouble removing the cover, you can also try using a hairdryer on low heat to soften the adhesive.<\/p>\n -Removing the cover will reveal the watch’s battery. Inspect first if there is a battery bracket or metal band in place before removing it. If there is, remove this first using a flathead screwdriver by gently prying off the bracket from its housing.<\/p>\n -Next, if you see a small plastic tab on top of the battery itself, use your fingernail to pull out and away from the watch so that it comes free. Other G-Shock models will require you to use a small screwdriver or a tweezer to remove the battery. You may want to remember how this battery was installed so that you can reinstall it correctly later.<\/p>\n -Once the battery is free, you will notice two small metal contacts on either side of its housing. These are responsible for sending power to the watch’s internal circuitry when paired with another set of metal contacts inside its compartment (these contact points should be visible once the battery is removed).<\/p>\n -Now that all the parts are free, you can begin to take out the old battery and replace it with a new one. Ensure that you have the exact G shock battery size. Be careful not to damage any of them while doing so, or your watch will no longer work properly.<\/p>\n -Once the new battery is in place, make sure that the contacts on either side of its housing are touching the corresponding ones inside the compartment. If they’re not, then you can use a small screwdriver or a tweezer to gently adjust them until they are (again, be very careful not to damage anything while doing this).<\/p>\n -Replace the battery cover and screws (if there were any), making sure that they are tightly fastened.<\/p>\n If your G-Shock isn’t working correctly after replacing its battery, then there could be some other issue at play here (such as water damage) and you may want to take it into a service center for further diagnosis.<\/p>\n If your G-Shock is battery operated, it will eventually die and need to be replaced. The average lifespan of a G-Shock battery is two years, but this varies depending on the model of the watch and how often it is worn. It can last longer than two years with proper care and maintenance.<\/p>\n When your timepiece shows signs that the battery needs to be replaced<\/a>, such as dimming of the screen or a shorter running time, it is time for a new one. It is always best<\/a> to replace the battery with a new one before it dies completely so that you do not lose any time.<\/p>\n G-Shock watches use a rechargeable<\/a> battery. The battery is a type of Lithium<\/a>-ion battery. This type of battery is often used in mobile devices because it has a high energy density and it is also very lightweight.<\/p>\nDoes G Shock run out of battery?<\/h2>\n
