So, your watch has stopped working. Either that, or time stopped at 10:15am. Either way, you probably need a new watch battery - if you've gone to the store, you probably realize the many choices you have in front of you. There are different prices, types, sizes and choices. If you're not sure where to look, you're going to be very, very confused. And if you choose the wrong Renata watch batteries, you could hurt your watch, and end up buying a new battery sooner than you would like.
Sure, we are not talking about the extremely expensive watches that promise a battery life measured in generations, we are talking about the normal mid range and slightly high end watches that most people are pleased to buy and display on their wrists. The battery sits right behind the timepiece, and can sometimes be seen as either one or two button cell batteries, each with AA rating of a maximum of 3V and able to power the timepiece for a couple of years at least.
But of course, nothing always goes according to plan and no matter how technologically superior the timepiece is there will always be a time when the battery will be at fault. Now, there are several reasons why this can happen and most of the time, it is due to faulty engineering of the battery itself.
Old and used batteries sometimes find their way into the new timepieces and because of their flawed design, they have leaks and power drains faster than normal. Or it could be a result to over exposure to the elements, which include the rain, the sun, and even exposure to chemicals and radiation from other sources. You could short out the battery in your timepiece pretty easily and you need to be careful.
However, these will only last you a few months - six at most - and you're going to have to invest in another one. It's a hassle to have to keep changing your battery again and again, but if you're looking for a cheap way to power your timepiece, this is it.
Take the battery off- With the help of the pin, you can take off the battery by sliding it gently under the battery and applying some little effort to pop it out. This should take you a few seconds. Once you have taken off the battery, look at it closely to note its serial number. With that knowledge, you can proceed to the shop to get a new battery compatible to your timepiece. When replacing it, ensure to keep the positive side up. Put things back together again and your timepiece will running like before.
Lithium- The lithium battery is, without a doubt, the most expensive timepiece battery. But it is for good reason - these batteries have the highest capacity, and can last the longest. How long? Up to ten years, maybe longer, depending on your timepiece, how powerful it is, and what you do with it. You shouldn't use a lithium battery on a high drain timepiece, however. Check your timepiece's manual to see what sort of drain it takes on the timepiece.
Ensure that you know the size of the timepiece cells for your specific timepiece before purchasing it for replacement. If you feel that you are not sure how to install the battery, then please do take it to a timepiece specialist or repairer to do it for you. When you tire of always replacing the battery for your timepiece cells, then you can always try the options technology has to offer.
