    Help! What am I doing wrong?

    Popped the case back off to change a battery. Was very tight. Can I get it back on? No!

    Is aligned fine with the crown stem
    Tried by had
    Tried with a piece of wood to get more pressure
    Tried with a case back press

    No joy

    Just one side or another will go in, but it won't "click" into place.

    Could I have deformed the case back slightly? Any other ideas?

    Thanks in advance...
