If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions. For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your watch. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair.
You might need replacement adhesive to reattach the battery when reassembling the device.

Good guide! With a few modifications, usable for the Samsung Active Watch 2. The only pitfall with the Active watch 2 is the small solder ribbon cable on the underside of the motherboard that could tear if you try to remove the board completely
