My Casio PAG60 seems to be losing the ability to keep a charge. It is solar powered. It will not charge past medium and only hold its charge for two - three days. The light also comes on without me pushing the button; sometimes all I have to do is turn my wrist and it lights up. I think it will probably have to go to a service center but I'm not sure it is worth the cost of doing so. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

In addition to the Pin there is also a small inner "locking" collar about 2mm long that fits into the center section of each link.
I did not notice this collar at first and it fell to the ground when I removed the first link. Without this piece the Pin's will just slide through the links with no locking mechanism.
It fits neatly into the inner portion of the link directly opposite the arrow that shows the direction of removal on the band.

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.

The problems is very simple: On the back cover (inside) is a little Cu metal Part. This part is glued to back cover using a poor glue (rubbered glue) and, in time, is moving from original position. You must put back this parts to original positin ( a little hole inside of back cover) and glue using a good glue. When the back cover is mounted , this part must have a ferm contact with two springs from mechanism (sensor for back cover open). If beatwin this springs isn't a electric short (using Cu metal parts) the internal mechanism of watch "see" the back cover is open and show "OPEN" on screen!
