How Long Should My Watch Battery Last?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- The above question is a tricky one-and is not uncommon for us to hear at TimesTicking. It’s also not uncommon for the first battery in a watch to last longer than its replacements. So ahead, we’re going to break down this topic to help clear the air.

i think it depends on the size of the battery too and the quality of the movement . i have a 40 year old watch that still runs around 5 years on a battery .
Thank you for this Quartz watch battery information 👍 Au
No problem 👍
Can you replace a battery that has the same size and will fit to your current quartz movement, But doesn't have the same voltage because the older one is LR which is alkaline and the new one is SR which is Silveroxide will it damage the movement?
My cheap digital Armitron with basic functions. That was about $8 new has been running for more than 10 years. I almost never take it off.
i have a cheap digital i was wearing in the 90s and i thought i would put a battery back in it and its working fine . has no moving parts except the pushers i guess . sometimes less is more . i also have a citizen watch from the 70's and its still ticks away year after year , decade after decade .
I heard some modern quarts watches actually disconnect the battery when pulling the stem for storage. True?
All of my adult life (over 50), I have killed my watch battery after just a couple of weeks. No matter how inexpensive or expensive. I am careful with them and I really wish that I didn't have this problem. I would love to know what you think.
Thank you for this video❣️
@Donna Ann Lim You're welcome! :)
Nice video.
@Henrik Pettersson Thank you, Henrik! Great to hear from you again. 👍
Is it worth it to replace a quartz movement in a watch that cost about $200.00 new. What would they charge for that.
Everything I needed to know .
@AlphaJustice Perfect! 👍
Times Ticking, are all the watch batteries the same quality? I went to replace my watch battery (Bulova) and the guy charged me $30+ tax because was he was replacing the old battery with a Swiss battery , which he said are a lot better and it should last at least 3 years. Is this true? Thank You, for your answer in advance.
@diose0078 Can't speak for other brands, however, we use Swiss Renata and 2 to 3 years sounds accurate - depending on movement and complications. Take care.
@@TimesTicking Thank You, for your reply. How much do you charge for that battery ?
?
My father died 22 years ago, and his quartz has been sitting in a draw . I had a look at it today and its still ticking away?¿?
When not in use I usually stop my watch and turn on again. Is this harmful? Does it prolong the life of the battery?

@@TimesTicking Thank you.
Larger Cr size of battery in a Timex indigo reader case says 2016 can a 2032 or 2050 fit in and last longer ?
@sol star 2032 or 2050 is not a sub for a 2016 ✔
TimesTicking - not understanding,same voltage will it fit in case? Looking for longer time between battery change ,with the thicker battery but will they fit!
@@solstar4778 No, there is a difference - 2032 and 2050 much thicker.
Our last car battery lasted a little over four years... That's what one can expect out of a car battery in comparison.
@Syndicated Satellite Good to know! 👍
my current battery is 8 years old and came with the new vehicle .
@@tjlee9901 That's really good. Not the norm though...
@@syndicatedsatellite7288 : i guess im much easier on my vehicles , than most peops
@@tjlee9901 It could be... You must have a good batery and vehicle combo...

It's weird.....but I seem to be a guy that sucks the energy out of my watches. It's been that way my whole life. I BLAZE through batteries, and I have a dozen of them now. It's so bizarre.
Is that even a thing???
I switch between an everyday watch with a silicone band and a stainless watch. Both Seiko. It seems like I'm changing batteries every 6 months. It seems like batteries used to last lears, but the newer stainless watch stopped after about a month.
You must be an energy vamp.😄
Lol wow 4-5 years!!!? I have to replace the battery about every two weeks in any watch I buy!
I think there may be something wrong with the watches you buy haha
