WATCH BATTERY CELL CONVERSION CHART!

Changing your Watch Battery is a pain. It seems the cheaper the Watch, the harder it is to change. And what makes it even more difficult is the fact that there are hundreds of different Watch Batteries. They come in different thicknesses, sizes, widths, it causes a lot of confusion and frustration. What's even funnier is the fact that a lot of Watch Batteries (or Cells) look alike, but aren't!

How is anyone supposed to know what's the correct size for your Watch? Pull out your old dead battery from your Watch and look at it. Chances are, there's a lot of gibberish on that battery. And some Watches sold in department stores (read cheaper) don't even list a battery number on them at all! ??? How's that supposed to help you?

So what can you do to find the correct battery that fits your Watch? Convert it!

Below is a Conversion Chart for the most common Watch Battery types. Both Regular (Silver Oxide & Mercury) and Lithium Battery Watch Cells. Take your Watch Battery Number, and look it up on the chart to locate its conversion number. Then go into any Jewelry Store and buy one. (Just about any Store, Jewelry or not, will sell Watch Batteries!)

Note: There are some batteries that will work for multiple Battery Numbers. So if they're out of one battery, you can always use the other! I'll list these at the end of the blog!

Here they are. The most common Watch Batteries, their Conversion Numbers and Voltage.

(Also note that Energizer is probably one of the most common brands of Watch Batteries sold, so I put their Cell Numbers in Red!) P.S. 364 & 379 are the two most popular Watch Batteries there are, so expect stores to be out of these! (Of course!)

All Batteries listed are Battery Chemical System "Silver-Oxide" except for these few Batteries Listed: (313, 323, 325, 343, 354, 387, & 388) Those Batteries are actually Mercury Batteries!
