Cannot open watch-back says, ''bezel stainless steel back''

I have tried everything to get this watch back off to change the battery. I even ordered a twist off type watch back removal tool from Hong Kong, but tool came with no instructions and doesn't seem to be capable of removing this watch back. I have scratches all over it from trying to use a super thin screwdriver (used for eyeglasses) which usually removes all my watch backs. I also have tried a razor blade to get under it to remove it. Will not budge. Anyone have any ideas of how to get this watch back off?

    OK, hopefully nobody is gonna blame me as this solution is free anyway. It's against FixYa policies, but I'll give you my e-mail to make things easier:

Take it to your local jewelry store, they will sell you a battery and install it for you. Watch how they do it for the next time.

SOURCE: Hi, I have a casio ef532d

Thank you for contacting FixYa.
You can not do this yourself. You can not remove bezel as it is sealed. To go through the back requires removing all the watch inside components and you will have to remove the winder. NOT RECOMMENDED TO DO YOURSELF.
Take to a local watchmaker, or send here:

I have a 7 year old Raymond Weil Women's Parsifal watch, stainless steel, bracelet, rectangular face. The outer face in stainless steel, that has four roman numerals on it, has somehow fallen off, or...

If you are talking about the bezel, which is the bit on the outside of the watch, you should contact the Raymond Weil repair centre SWICO. They repaired my Othello when half the bezel fell off. They had it back to me in no time! Their details are on the Raymond Weil website:
