Use this link and browse through my TIPS AND TRICKS: http://www.fixya.com/MyProfile/tips.aspx?usrid=1700524. You will find manual for your watch here.

you have to hold down the top botton for about 15 seconds, then it should blink, it's called demo mode.

There are three batteries in the watch. Two that power the alternating colors and one that powers the watch.

The battery number for the am3695 is 397. Just get two. Walmart carried them for about 4 bucks each.

i just experience this problem today when changing the batteries in one. sometime when the movement shifts the button to change the dial arent lined up so it doesnt make good contact. try adjusting the movement and make sure there is a good connection. u might as well check the batteries while ur at it

You may or may not have arrows inside bracelet. Arrows are pointing the way the pins must come out.
First you have to find out what sort of pins or even screws are used to keep links together.
Examine both bracelet sides and find the side where pin ends have a groove.
Start with a tiny screwdriver and unscrew one of the screws. If it turns, but doesn't come out, that means you have a pins instead.
For removing pins the best would be pin removing tool (approx.5GBP on ebay), but it's possible to do the job without it.
Take a hardened steel needle and blunt the sharp end to the approx. size of pin end diameter using any sharpening stone or sandpaper. Get an old towel and fold it to make a soft base for work (like small cusion). As you don't have a special bracelet holder you will need a pair of helping hands to hold the bracelet steady upright. You will need small hammer and pair of flat nose pliers as well.
NOTE: The pins MUST be driven split end out first, not vice versa. Make sure that the grooved pin ends are facing towel, not the needle and hammer!!!
Now place the watch on the folded towel, take that needle and smallest hammer you have and start driving the pin out using light blows. Do Not hit hard, as you will brake the needle, scratch your watch or even injure yourself. Watchmakers are using 45 gram hammer, so, calculate your strength of blows.
After a few blows check if the split end is coming out and when you see that the end is long enough to grab it with pliers, pull the pin out with pliers. When pulling, do NOT turn pliers, as pins tend to brake when twisted. Use firm grip and your strength to pull the pin without twisting.
After shortening the bracelet or adding extra link(s) make sure that the pins go back EXACTLY the same way as they came out- the blunt end first in the hole and the split (grooved) end last. Before doing that check remaining pins in bracelet to make sure that you put them back from the right side of bracelet.
It is recommended to use plastic hammer to drive pins back in or you will scratch or damage bracelet. If plastic hammer is not available use an old toothbrush handle (or some plastic item) as an absorber. Simply put pin into the hole as deep as you can with your fingers, put the toothbrush handle on split pin end and hit handle, not the pin.
Make sure that pin ends are flush with bracelet. If needed- hit few more times.
Job done!
If you do not want to do it yourself, any jeweler will do it in a matter of few minutes.
Don't forget to rate, please.

It sounds like the reset button on the inside was not pushed. There is a small reset button on the inside. Bring it back to a Fossil Store so that they can open the back and take it off. When you bring the watch back, tell the associate that you would like them to try resetting the watch from the inside.

The "gizmo" would be the pin that attaches the watch to the case. You can easily purchase a replacement pin or strap at any store that has watches (even Wal-Mart). These are very inexpensive and each one will cost you less than $10.

Question edited for clarity. In this link, but you are better to have Fossil or a local jeweler replace it as it needs a press. https://www.google.com/search?q=Fossil+FS2919+crystal+replacement ..

You don't unless you want to damage it. And Misty J, why resurrect a question from 8 years ago! https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries ..

Question edited for clarity and toss in some CAPS. Did you change it yourself? https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries I think you have a number missing from the model number, they are all 4 numbers as opposed to 3. If you purchased it on Amazon or eBay, it is a clone. Contact Fossil and book it in for a service. https://www.google.com/search?q=fossil+j-123+big+tic ..

Just a model name but also when the battery is wearing down, the second hand jumps 2 seconds instead of one.

Fossil battery replacement sizes are usually a 2430 (CR2430), 371 (SR920SW), or 377 (SR626SW). https://www.fossil.com/en-us/******/how-to-change-a-watch-battery
