i come to "bullshitkorner" and the guy is using the proper tool. go figure.

Do you ever add silicon grease to the gasket to help with the water resistance?

[Bullshitkorner]

@38dragoon38 No I didn't but it would help, I've since retired that watch to use only in the garage working on projects

Is there any way of doing this without the specialist tool?

[Bullshitkorner]

@SuperBasscase no not really unless you rigged something up, i have a few watches so I purchased a cheap kit off ebay otherwise i'd just take it in and pay the money to get the battery changed
