Honestly though, the easiest way to find the right battery is to simply read the number off of your old battery or find it listed in your watch's user manual. For example, a 2032 watch battery will have a diameter of 20mm and a height of 3.2mm. These numbers are an abbreviation of the diameter and height of the battery itself in millimeters, with the first two numbers referring to diameter and the last two referencing height.

Watch battery sizes are designated by a series of numbers such as 1216 or 2032. Just like with silver oxide batteries, lithium are available in low drain (Low Rate BR Carbon Monofluoride) and high drain (High Rate CR Manganese Dioxide) varieties. A lithium cell battery is typically the size of a nickel or larger and very thin. Lithium cell batteries are most commonly found in large sport and digital watches with a number of features. Low drain batteries are engineered for basic watches with low to moderate power requirements, while high drain batteries are used for more power-hungry watches with special functions such as backlighting, chronometers and alarms. Silver oxide batteries are available in both low drain and high drain types. The type of battery your watch requires depends on its build, design and size, although the majority of watches run on either silver oxide cell or lithium coin cell batteries.
