Welcome, Chris:

Congratulations on the first Heuer. You will need a new e-mail address, with "Heuer" as the first five characters.

I have been told that you need a "special tool" to remove this back. Case is waterproof; definitely "heavy construction"; I doubt that the average pocket knife will get the job done. I will check with an expert and report back to you, on this Forum.

Thanks for the message and we are glad to have you among the "Heuer guys".

Jeff
