Can I use another cell instead of CTL920F?

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

  • Use instead of CTL920F

    MT920

    No

    No: MT920 and CTL920F are different rechargeable systems.

    CTL920F is cobalt-titanium rechargeable, 2.3 V; MT920 is manganese-titanium rechargeable, 1.5 V. Use the type printed on the old cell or in the maker's table.

    MT920: 9.5 mm2 × 2 mm2, 1.5 V2

  • Use instead of CTL920F

    SR920SW

    Never

    Never: CTL920F is rechargeable, SR920SW is not.

    CTL920F is a cobalt-titanium rechargeable cell that the watch charges from its solar panel or generator. SR920SW is a primary silver oxide cell, not made to be charged. Replace it only with the same rechargeable type.

    SR920SW: 9.5 mm3 × 2.05 mm3 Sources disagree: manufacturer 2.05 mm / secondary source 2 mm4, 1.55 V3

Warnings from the makers

Do not mix cells

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

Questions

Can I replace CTL920F with a regular battery?

No. CTL920F is a cobalt-titanium rechargeable cell that the watch charges from its solar panel or generator. SR920SW is a primary silver oxide cell, not made to be charged. Replace it only with the same rechargeable type.

What watches use the CTL920F battery?

In our base: 24 Citizen models; movements such as Citizen U680 (Eco-Drive, radio-controlled). The full lists are on this page, with the brand tables they come from.
