Hi.

Was a member a while ago and life took a turn. Gone back to my little stash of replicas I purchased from china a decade or so ago. Got a BR01-94 carbon fibre faced watch that still looks cool. No way to get the back off. Do you change the battery from the front?
Any help much appreciated

If your Bell & Ross has a battery, you do not have a Bell & Ross.
The B&R is powered by an ETA 2892; replicas generally have the Miyota 9015 inside. Every one of them is a mechanical movement.

It's my understanding that he has a low-end copy with a quartz movement. Think of it like a DHgate level.

I can't speak to the replica, but the genuine the movement is accessed by unscrewing the four screws on the front and coming out through the front. I'm going to make a assumption that the replica which OP has at least this much design and build in common with a genuine Bell and Ross. Agreed with above, some good pictures of the front back and sides would help to better answer this
