    I had heaps of trouble with mine too... I eventually got the cover plate to unscrew with a coin but then I couldn't remove the battery itself. I ended up taking it to a watch battery kiosk and they replaced it. Do you know that apparently Polar will not quarentee the water resistance unless the batteries are changed by a Polar authorised outlet?

    Once I got mine turned to the unlock position, I had to gently rap it on the counter a few times.
