I bought this watch new a few years ago and never used it. Finally decided to use it and after going through 3 (different brand) battery changes, the watch still stops after a few seconds. I tap it and it starts again only to stop after a few seconds. There doesn't seem to be any corrosion inside, it looks perfectly clean. What should I do now?

First you have to get an eyeglass and examine watch caseback. Can you see the joint or is it monoblock? If there is joint, get strong knife and press into it. Some of watch casebacks are very tight, so, apply great pressure but do not let the blade slip or you will damage the movement.
If the case is monoblock, then you have to open it from dial side.
Be very carefull when doing it as any slip of the blade will damage your watch.
Good luck.

Its like a clasp just use a knife an open it at back case you can groove where you placed the knife tip.
