FAQs about the Varta V373 watch battery

What does the designation SR916SW mean?

The international IEC designation provides information about the battery. "S" stands for silver oxide, "R" for the round shape, "916" for the dimensions (9.5 mm x 1.65 mm) and the "SW" at the end indicates a "Low Drain" version. This is specially optimised for devices with low and constant power consumption, such as wristwatches.

Is this battery compatible with the designation SR68SW?

The Varta 373 corresponds to the internationally standardised IEC designation SR916SW. The designation SR68SW is not standardised. Please check the number on your old battery. If it says 373 or SR916SW, this is the correct and suitable replacement.

For which watches is this battery type particularly suitable?

The V373 is typically used in very flat wristwatches. Due to its extremely low height, it is a popular choice for elegant and delicate watch models where a minimal case height is important.

How should this watch battery be disposed of?

Watch batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. Please take the empty battery to the designated collection points in shops or municipal recycling centres to ensure environmentally responsible disposal.
