Be careful that you do not try to pry the entire white battery holder out of the watch to get at the second battery. You simply lift the top up, leaving the battery leads that go to the red LED microlight. This can be tricky, so be careful. Having said that, I was not too delicate and they survived when I replaced the bottom battery. The batteries in my watch were the CR2032 for the LED and the SR927W for the watch. (The SR927W has a generic matching to the 399 series batteries that can be picked up at most watch, pharmacy and grocery stores. The Duracell 395/399 replacement fit into mine.) Note that after I pried my white battery holder up, I had to press it back down FIRMLY in order to make the red LED light work again.

Did you change the battery yourself? Did you have instructions? The reason I ask is only because some watches/etc have more the one battery for various functions. Sometimes there are more batteries underneatch the battery you replaced.
I would call the manufacturer and ask them if you have the number.
Gemineya61 was right. The top batter mount tips up (carefully) and the 395 small button battery can be accessed on the second level. Tom
I have a Dakota Mini-Clip Microlight watch and am in the process of changing the battery. As gemineye61 and tomehowe stated, there are indeed two batteries. First, to get the back off required substantial force with a tough bladed knife. (There is no small recess to insert a flat bladed screw driver for prying.) The large battery now exposed is for the light; on mine, it was a CR2032 H. The white plastic battery holder must now be gently pried up to expose the watch works and the true watch battery. It is much smaller than the light battery. Gently pry it out. On my watch, this small battery was an SR626SW. Tim
