Can I use another cell instead of CTL621F?

Verdicts follow our swap rules from the datasheet size, voltage and cell type.

  • Use instead of CTL621F

    MT621

    No

    No: MT621 and CTL621F are different rechargeable systems.

    CTL621F is cobalt-titanium rechargeable, 2.3 V; MT621 is manganese-titanium rechargeable, 1.5 V. Use the type printed on the old cell or in the maker's table.

  • Use instead of CTL621F

    SR621SW

    Never

    Never: CTL621F is rechargeable, SR621SW is not.

    CTL621F is a cobalt-titanium rechargeable cell that the watch charges from its solar panel or generator. SR621SW is a primary silver oxide cell, not made to be charged. Replace it only with the same rechargeable type.

Warnings from the makers

Do not mix cells

“Avoid mixed use of batteries, i.e. new, used or differ- ent types.”[6]

Questions

Can I replace CTL621F with a regular battery?

No. CTL621F is a cobalt-titanium rechargeable cell that the watch charges from its solar panel or generator. SR621SW is a primary silver oxide cell, not made to be charged. Replace it only with the same rechargeable type.

What watches use the CTL621F battery?

In our base: 27 Citizen models; movements such as Citizen A060 (Eco-Drive), Citizen H145 (Eco-Drive, radio-controlled), Citizen H800 (Eco-Drive, radio-controlled). The full lists are on this page, with the brand tables they come from.
