Cover the slot with cellotape before using a coin to remove the back to avoid scratching. Do not touch the battery at all with fingers, use tweezers. Don't worry you will get lots of practice changing core batteries, the watch eats them.

@borisdraceana No doubt. I am changing my batteries every 6-9 months.

damn ! I do have same watch (all black edition) I did try open with coin...then with screwdriver ,still can't open and I did really use muscles + already scratch back of it ....my are closed really tight ! now hammer will probably help

[breitlingsource]

@vasehovno Oh no.. I hate scratches. It works best with a VERY large flathead screwdriver.. one of the ones that are prybar sized almost helps.

@breitlingsource ......OK JUST DID try that again ....nothing , I used bigger screwdriver no luck there, then I made(grind) piece off metal which fit exactly to the back of the watch..and nothing ...damn !!? I guest now I have to go some where ...?

@vasehovno You might. you can also try putting the watch head in a watch holder and put that in a vise and turn it.. its easier that way.
