How to open a glued case-back?

Hello,

Some six years ago a jeweller replaced the battery in my Skagen watch. However, it turned out that the case back was a bit distorted so it would not snap closed. Instead of informing and consulting me, the guy decided to glue the thing together.

At that time I could not be bothered with it. However, surprise, the battery ran out and how am I going to open the case?

I have no idea on what type of glue was used, perhaps just off-the-shelf jewellers glue, but does anybody have any ideas on dissolving such? I would like to have some extra insight before I just start prying away at the watch.

Thanks,

Bill
