First, an Oysterquartz battery lasts between 2 and 3 years...so it's not every year that a battery change is necessary. Secondly, Rolex has been making solid gold casebacks for decades, so your theory about harming the caseback threads by too much tension doesn't hold water...otherwise, there would be millions of damaged casebacks from Rolex solid gold models making their way to the smelter as we speak. So long as a good watch repair person is doing the battery change, you should be fine.

If you have your heart set on a solid gold Oysterquartz then have at it. If you're going to lie awake at night pondering the fate of your caseback, then you should probably look to another model.
