How To Get Your Watch Battery Replaced

You must always choose the correct battery for your watch. If you have the original battery on hand as a reference, this will make it much easier to select the appropriate replacement.

Watch batteries are defined by a set of codes and standards, which means that to ensure that you’re using the correct new battery for your watch, you’ve got to use the right combinations of codes and standards. Otherwise, an incompatible replacement battery can risk damaging your watch.

If you aren’t sure what type of battery your timepiece needs, we advise getting a jeweller to do it for you. It’s highly advisable in general to turn to a professional horologist or jeweller if you need your watch’s battery replaced.

That’s because watches are tiny, complex mechanisms with numerous fragile parts. They’re very easy to break if you’re inexperienced or don’t know what you’re doing – which can be a costly lesson to learn if you have a silver or gold watch.

With so many watch batteries available, finding the correct type and model can be challenging. This is another area where the professionals can help. Experienced jewellers have a good understanding of the kinds of batteries most watches need and can perform a fast, efficient battery replacement to get your wristwatch ticking along like new.

Signs You Might Need A New Watch Battery

Unlike your phone or computer, most watches don’t come with battery bars. So how do you know when it’s time to get your watch’s battery changed? Your clever little device has several ways of telling you:

Your Watch Has Stopped

One of the most obvious signs that it’s time to get a new battery is when your watch is no longer telling the time. Most mechanical watch batteries last for about two years before needing a replacement. However, this lifespan can vary based on several factors, including whether your watch is analogue or digital, the battery’s size, and whether your watch has extra functions that you use.

Your Second Hand Jumps

Has your second hand started to move in five-second intervals instead of measuring time second by second? Your watch’s ‘end of life’ indicator might have kicked into gear. Timepieces use this as a way of signalling that your battery’s due for a replacement. While your watch will continue to tell the time with a jumping second hand, the battery will likely begin to die over the coming weeks.

Your Watch No Longer Runs On Time

When your watch has begun to run too slow or too fast, a dying battery is likely to be the cause. While this is not always necessarily the case, especially for older mechanical watches which might need to be serviced, have parts replaced or gears adjusted or changed, it usually comes down to an issue with the battery. In any case, taking your watch to a horologist or jeweller is an excellent way of having it professionally assessed, so you know exactly what action to take.

You should always go to a professional jeweller when it’s time to get your watch’s battery replaced or repaired. The team here at DM Jewellery are trained experts, and we can quickly and effectively replace your watch’s battery. If you can do it yourself and are simply looking for a replacement battery, check out our extensive range of silver oxide or lithium watch batteries.
