All you need to know in 5 minutes about watch batteries
First of all, how to recognize a watch at Batterie from a mechanical watch. A quartz watch works with electrical impulses that are released every second. These impulses result in a jerky movement of the seconds hand. Unlike a mechanical watch where the hand moves continuously in 95% of cases.
Like any battery, a Batterie has a limited lifespan and needs to be replaced. You will find all the information and everything you need to know about watch batteries.

Which Batterie to watch use?
The watches at Batterie also known as "quartz" watches are usually equipped with button cells. Watch batteries are usually silver oxide and lithium. There are different powers (called voltage) expressed in volts. Depending on the functionality of the watch or the complexity of the movement, Batterie must supply the watch's energy requirements.
Lithium batteries are more powerful and are used for watches with a large number of functions and are fond of energy. Lithium batteries can provide a voltage of up to 3V (volts) while silver oxide batteries provide 1.55V (volts).
Which watch batteries are the most sought-after?
There are mainly 3 brands of battery manufacturers which are positioned on 70% of the quartz watch market in the world: Renata, Energizer and Sony.
At Antenen , for example, in addition to these 3 main brands of batteries, the following batteries are also distributed Rohs Cell, batteries Varta and batteries Cellsius
The Batterie of watch 371 from Renata and the watch Batterie 370 from Energizer are the most common references. All brands offer an equivalent to a reference.
Did you know that?
Swatch watches are the best selling watches in the world. The Batterie swatch 317 watch and the Batterie swatch 329 watch are therefore the world's best-selling batteries.

What is the lifetime of a Batterie watch?
Theoretically, the average lifespan of a Batterie is between 18 and 36 months. The lifetime of a Batterie depends on the type of Batterie, the functionalities or the composition of the watch mechanism.
Silver oxide batteries can last long enough. They have a minimum life of twelve months and a maximum life of thirty months. Lithium batteries, on the other hand, can last for years, usually up to eight to ten years.
How do I know when to change the Batterie button on my watch?
Here are 4 simple guidelines to help you know when to change your watch's Batterie :
1- The watch hands make good 5 in 5 or 10 in 10: some watches like for example the Hermès watches at Batterie, when the Batterie of the watch is weakened or is almost at the end of its life, the watch hands will jump 5 in 5 instead of all the seconds.
2- Your watch is starting to fall behind: this may indicate that your watch's Batterie is at the end of its life or that the movement is faulty.
3- The last replacement of Batterie is more than 18 months old. Do not hesitate to have it replaced. At Antenen for example, it often happens that we replace the Tissot watch batteries that are still functional.
4- The watch is stopped: the hands of the watch are motionless and when you hold your ear, you do not hear the mechanism move.
What you should remember: if your watch is stopped, do not delay to have Batterie replaced quickly!

What to do if your watch is stopped?
If your watch is stopped, first check whether it is a mechanical or quartz watch (help here : how to know if your watch is at Batterie or mechanically operated). You then have two options either to change the Batterie of your watch yourself or to go to a watchmaker or watch brand without delay to have the Batterie button of your watch replaced.
What can happen if you don't change the Batterie of your watch?
Very often, when the watch is stopped, it is stored in a drawer or nothing is done to replace it: ERROR! When a Batterie watch button is worn out, it can create a chemical reaction and let a liquid escape in the mechanism and create a lot of damage: we then say that "the Batterie has sunk"!
Would you like to change the Batterie button on your watch yourself?
You do not want to have the Batterie of your watch changed by a professional and want to do it yourself. How to change the Batterie of a watch? Here's how to do it:
1.The Batterie of the watch is located at the back of the watch and is protected by a metal watch case known as the case back. There are generally 2 types of case back: screwed and clipped. How to open a watch to change the Batterie of a watch?
- For a watch with a screwed back, you need a special tool that allows you to unscrew and screw the case back.
- For a watch with a clip-on bottom, you will need a special knife or tool adapted to the case.
2.Once you have successfully opened the back of the watch, keep the gaskets and carefully remove the Batterie using a tool called brussel which is anti-magnetic.
3.it is recommended to use the same reference of Batterie button as the one you removed. If there is nothing registered on Batterie, it is possible to find the reference of Batterie adapted to your watch thanks to the technical literature supplied by battery manufacturers.
Place the Batterie, replace the seals and close the housing. Remember to check if the hands are working and set the time to check.
Caution: If you swim with your watch, check or have the water resistance checked before use.
What is the price of a Batterie watch?
The price of a Batterie watch generally costs between CHF 2.00 and CHF 5.00 if you buy it individually from a retailer offering button cells. Antenen offers button cells individually from CHF 1.10 for example for a Batterie Renata 371.
Did you know that?
Antenen also offers single-use batteries for everyday use such as the Batterie CR2032 or the Batterie LR44 or the Batterie AA. These batteries are available individually and in different brands.

What are the risks of changing a Batterie watch yourself?
Replacing a Batterie watch button is not a very complex maneuver, you have to have done it at least once to know how to do it: it's like replacing the battery in your car. Nevertheless, unlike a car battery, quartz movements are very fragile, a bad handling can lead to the circuit breakage. What are the risks of changing a Batterie watch yourself?
- Damaging the watch by retreating with the tool will result in scratches of varying depth.
- Damage the circuit by manipulating the Batterie.
- Replace the Batterie with a bad one: the watch would work but might not be on time.
- Damaging the gaskets or closing the case improperly: In contact with a humid environment, the gaskets will no longer protect the watch, and this may result in oxidation damage.
Here are our recommendations for use:
-
-
- First try replacing the Batterie button on a watch you are not holding .
-
- If you have several quartz watches, invest in watchmaking equipment that will allow you to replace a Batterie button on your watches: a good handyman has good tools.
- If you're hesitating, it's best not to venture out. Ask a watchmaker or a professional to avoid a disaster.
I changed the Batterie but the watch is still stopped?
If you changed the Batterie yourself, try again: the Batterie you replaced may be defective or the Batterie button you replaced is misplaced.
Despite this, your watch is still stopped: it may be time to have the movement serviced or the circuit replaced: consult a professional!
How much does it cost to change a watch at Batterie by a professional?
The price of a change of a watch from Batterie depends on the category of the watch, i.e. the price of the watch and its value. The price of a change to Batterie for a Breitling watch for example will be very different from the price of a change to Batterie for a Tissot watch partly because of their value.
The price of changing a watch at Batterie will also depend on the watchmaker who will carry out the operation:changing a Fossil watch at Batterie at a repair service of a major brand, for example, will be much more expensive at an independent watchmaker.
The price of changing Batterie to a professional depends on several criteria: brand, waterproofing and complexity.
