You need a watch back press if it is push on, or a back removal tool if it is a screw back.. https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries ..

SAME NUMBER THAT YOU REMOVED.

I just replaced this battery myself, it wasn't easy, but is doable. First, you will need some tweezers, a tiny phillips, and a tiny flat blade screwdriver. Totally at your own risk!- Remove the 4 small screws on the back of the watch- You will see a large battery under a metal clamp, this is for the back light. Remove the two phillips screws securing the clamp, and put that aside with the battery and screws. The clamp also has a metal flap on the side that acts as part of the mechanism for the back light button.- You will now see the second battery hiding under the circuit board, it will have a small black circular rubber sticker on it. Remove the third remaining screw (very near the right hand one you have already removed) to take off the circuit board. It is clicked down slightly onto two lugs, so prise carefully at the left and right to free it- At this point be very careful not to tip the watch upside down. There are two very small brass springs which make contact with the very top and bottom underneath of the circuit board, which now they are removed could easy fall out- Under the circuit board is a plastic sheet, remove carefully with tweezers- You are nearly there! There are three flat head screws, I got away with just undoing the two nearest the battery, and the third I loosened off enough to carefully lift the metal up to get the battery out- Carefully remove black sticker, and put it on the replacement battery instead, and now reverse the entire process. Getting the metal clamp back on to secure the battery, and put the screws back is really quite fiddly, make sure it is help down properly- Make sure before you put the circuit board back, that the two brass springs are in place. When putting the metal clamp over the larger battery, make sure the metal flap that is pushed by the backlight button is in place properly.Avoid touching anything inside the watch with fingers, use tweezers to remove screws and parts, and make sure you keep track of which screws went where. Good luck!

Hello Graham Chetwynd, Seven months... My GUESS would be yes. It is a rather short period for a "NEW" BATTERY... But not knowing the actual date YOUR battery was installed... or it's "shelf-life" WHEN it was installed can have a significant impact on the LONGEVITY you experienced. (Opinion: normal expectation should be three to five years). I now CHANGE all my WIFE's and OWN WATCH / CHRONO-meter/Chronograph batteries ... A few quality tools are required... but after EXPERIENCING the general lack of CARE and/or CRAFTSMANSHIP... at DEPARTMENT, "Jewelers, "DIME"-STORE.. (etc.)... Even a "respected " WATCH "repair" shop... pretty well pounded, scratch & bug... botched up some beautiful WATCH CASES... I felt I could do a lot better (worlds) on my own... (amateur: VERSUS the professional...) results looked as though the watch cases were opened with brick chisels)). Start by taking and old soft bristle brush and cleaning & polishing the ENTIRE WATCH.. Clean watch will keep dirt from IMMEDIATELY getting pushed inside the watch. If a case "cracker" is used... put a bit of masking tape AGAINST the CASE and press firmly... Marks are inevitable... but love & care go a long way to minimizing the DAMAGE (do try not to get blood on the watch... it corrodes). Over he ensuing decades... I've gotten better.. but NEVER lose sight as SOON as a watch case is opened by LESS THAN A FACTORY technician... it goes from WATER-POOF to water RESISTANT (at best). Case closer: Also available on eBay & Amazon: ($17 - $21) http://www.watchoutletexpress.com/product/1003970 Jaxa style case wrenches: Vastar 147 PCS Watch Repair Kit Professional Spring Bar Tool Set Amazon com Jewelers loupe of double magnifier (etc). Amazon com LEMONBEST Double Eye Watch Repair Magnifier Loupe Jeweler... From here (plus a bit of skill)... all the gouges & scratches will be minimized... (+ tweezers = forceps (teeny-tiny parts handling)). I'll be around (about daily... pray do comment me back if I can help... (I love watches). When you DO GET INSIDE.... write down the WATCH... and it's BATTERY... and keep it with your AWI battery guide... (battery TRANSLATION guide (I have ... but could NOT find)). ((( comment me... I'll translate from AWI to SRI to Sony, Duracell, Renata, Varta & Eveready or Accutron (Bulova))))... You will be proud (we can do this). Wiki... article: List of battery sizes

I would suspect the battery is defective.
