Do you have any guides for that? I'd like to try my hand at it.

  I should have a guide, but haven't created one yet - don't want to derail the thread, but here are a few pointers: - The iFixit Apple Watch teardown is surprisingly effective - way more heat (and patience) is required then they indicate - Using an X-Acto blade between the frame and glass really works well without damaging a single component (please be careful and alternate heat and prying) - You may also need to replace the deep-press bezel - consider ordering one prior to your repair - The battery glue is very, very persistent - lots of unnerving heat and prying - Use a needle to separate the upper and lower battery connection on one side of the connector - Three different replacement bezel glue rings all released over time - Permatex black gasket maker is the only thing that worked to reattach the display Good luck, and I hope this helps save a few watches from being recycled prematurely

    You should post that someplace (of course I’m keeping a copy).
