Cell types in this size

SR512SW

Low drain (SW): for plain analog watches · Silver Oxide2

7 codes in our sources name this cell type.

LR512

Alkaline cell of the same size: the IEC digits are the size, the L is the chemistry. LR512 lands on this page by that rule; our sources hold no alkaline datasheet for it, so no figures are shown.

Can I use another cell instead of 335?

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

  • Use instead of SR512SW

    LR512

    Fits, with a catch

    Fits, but LR512 is alkaline and runs shorter.

    Same 5.8 mm × 1.25 mm size. LR512 is an alkaline (L) cell; the watch is made for silver oxide (S). Use it to get the watch going, then fit SR512SW.

  • Use instead of SR512SW

    SR516SW

    No

    No: SR516SW is 0.4 mm taller than SR512SW.

    Same 5.8 mm diameter, but SR516SW stands 1.65 mm against 1.25 mm: the case back presses on it or does not close.

Questions

What is the 335 battery equivalent?

SR512SW, V335, 622, 280-68, 9948, SB-AB, SR512 name the same 5.8 × 1.25 mm silver oxide cell as 335. Any maker's cell under one of these codes fits.

Is 317 the same as 335?

No. SR516SW is 0.4 mm taller than SR512SW. Same 5.8 mm diameter, but SR516SW stands 1.65 mm against 1.25 mm: the case back presses on it or does not close.

Is LR512 the same as SR512SW?

No: LR512 is an alkaline cell of the same size, SR512SW is silver oxide. Fits, but LR512 is alkaline and runs shorter. Same 5.8 mm × 1.25 mm size. LR512 is an alkaline (L) cell; the watch is made for silver oxide (S). Use it to get the watch going, then fit SR512SW.

What watches use the 335 battery?

In our base: 10 Seiko calibres (1E20, 1E50, 1E70, 2F50…). The full lists are on this page, with the brand tables they come from.

How long does a 335 battery last in a watch?

Seiko's battery chart gives 2 to 2 years for its 10 calibres on this cell, 2 years most often. Life depends on the calibre's current draw, not on the cell alone.
