Cell types in this size
SR731SW
Low drain (SW): for plain analog watches · Silver Oxide2
3 codes in our sources name this cell type.
LR731
Alkaline cell of the same size: the IEC digits are the size, the L is the chemistry. LR731 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 329?
Verdicts follow our swap rules from the datasheet size, voltage and cell type.
Use instead of SR731SW
LR731
Fits, with a catchFits, but LR731 is alkaline and runs shorter.
Same 7.9 mm × 3.1 mm size. LR731 is an alkaline (L) cell; the watch is made for silver oxide (S). Use it to get the watch going, then fit SR731SW.
Draw both cells in the swap checkerNo: SR726SW is 0.5 mm thinner than SR731SW.
Same 7.9 mm diameter, but SR726SW is 2.6 mm against 3.1 mm: the contact spring may not reach it.
SR726SW: 7.9 mm1 × 2.6 mm1, 1.55 V1
Draw both cells in the swap checkerNo: SR41SW is 0.5 mm taller than SR731SW.
Same 7.9 mm diameter, but SR41SW stands 3.6 mm against 3.1 mm: the case back presses on it or does not close.
SR41SW: 7.9 mm1 × 3.6 mm1, 1.55 V1
