Hi, I have the same watch and the back pops off.
I lost my battery for my watch and I can't seem to find what battery it takes. If or when you opened up your watch. Could you tell me what battery is in it? Thanks
You could email me [email protected]

Are there indents going around in a circle on the back of the watch? if so it is a screw off. You need a special tool available at a jeweler to unscrew back. If it does not have those indents, then look very carefully around the outside edge for the lifting spot, use a pocketknife (carefully!) to lift!

Bulova 98H48. What battery is in it please? I opened the watch up to replace the battery and ended up losing it. Thanks.

They use many, so the answer is always "the same as the one that came out of it".

Nothing here, which is odd because that normally works,

Look for tiny engraving next to the battery compartment.

Or ask them direct.

NEED A BATTERY FOR BULOVA CL437597

https://www.quora.com/How-do-I-know-which-battery-I-need-to-fix-my-bulova-watch

I have changed batteries on watches before but none were bulova. I opened the back which you have to do to change battery find what battery you need and order online. I have been able to find at stores year ago but most watches now days people don't change batteries they buy new watches. It is a little harder to find batteries in stores.
When you find the type battery google to get the place to buy it.

I cannot get the back of my Bulova watch back on. I popped it off to replace the battery however I cannot get the back back on!

Most Bulova Watches have PRESSURE TIGHT backs. Meaning the back is applied with EQUAL amounts of pressure to the entire back. There are two(2) solutions:

1. Take the Bulova watch to an experienced watch dealer/repaiman, to have the back applied, or

2. CAREFULLY MAKE SURE THE BACK IS IN THE PROPER POSITION, then WRAP THE ENTIRE watch with a soft, cushy clothe and with a pair of pliers, CAREFULLY apply pressure to the center of the back plate, until the back covers seats to the proper depth(closed), at the same time BEING VERY CAREFUL not to crack the watch crystal!!

I have a Caravelle Bulova watch #48G33 and I need to change the battery. I took it to a jeweler and he mess up the back and told me he did not have a battery that fit. I think he was unable to get the back...

Hey there !
if the back has a notch on the top left of the cover (right underneath to what would be 10'oclock position), it is a 'Pop-up'. But if the watch has 6-8 notches on the back plate of the watch its a screw-off.
Its really hard to say what battery size it would take due to the fact that each watch has a different operating mechanism and its hard to determine that from the model number.

I can't seem to remove the back casing on my Bulova watch in order to replace the battery.

If you take a small scredriver (one that is used to repair eyeglasses) and run it gently around the rim of the back, you will feel a slight indentation where you can insert the screwdriver to open up the back. The battery is easily accesible but then it's tough to get the back back on!

Hi. If you take a tiny screwdriver (one that you might use to screw a screw into an eyeglass and run it gently around the back you will feel an indentation where you can insert the tip and pop open the back. The battery is easy to access but trying to get the back back on is the problem! Good Luck.
