No matter how fashionable, well-known, and well-made your wristwatch is, eventually the battery will die and you’ll need to buy a new one. Therefore, when the cell eventually fails, you will have to replace it with a new one because the life of your wristwatches does not end. A watch battery chart is also advised to determine which battery fits the watch the best. How to Check the Watch Battery Code? You must open the watch in order to verify the code. Remove the watch’s back plate with a screwdriver. Take it with care and use a screwdriver to get rid of all the tiny screws. You will now notice a small battery. Using the tweezers, remove them. It is engraved with numbers or a battery code. You will need a magnifying glass to check the writing on the cell because the numbers are so small. Use the watch battery chart to match your watch battery.

Types of Button or Coin Cell for Wristwatches In light of the fact that various cell types are used in watch models, one should be aware of them. While some batteries only work once or have a short lifespan, others can be recharged. Batteries in wristwatches are frequently button or coin cells. Since these batteries cannot be recharged, they are useless after they run out of power. Finally, you must throw it away and purchase a new one. Silver-oxide and alkaline are typical


examples of different chemistry. Zinc-air batteries are not used in watches. Mercury-oxide was yet another typical watch battery. Newer models don’t use mercury-oxide batteries. Purchase These Essentials ● A small knife size screwdriver ● A new battery To avoid scratching your watch, place it on a piece of paper or another smooth surface. To remove the cover, use a long-nosed plier after unscrewing all of the screws. A plastic spacer cover is located underneath the cover. Using a screwdriver or tweezers, remove the cover. Lift it carefully because you could damage the mechanism part if you do not do it. The two metal clips—one of which is flexible—enclose the battery. The clip will release when you pull it off, allowing you to put in a fresh battery. Your watch will once more display the time if you replace all the covers and tighten the pins.
