Soak it in coca-cola for couple of hours.
No the whole watch of course but for the deep of case back.
It worked for seized spark plugs in car engine.

Re: Free watch to whomever can get this open
Some great suggestions given, but none worked for me. Ultimately I found that a hammer to the crystal really made me feel better….and succeeded in opening the watch.
Gave up and hope to never come across another watch like that one.

I wish that watch were 38mm?
