FAQs
What does '0% Mercury' mean for this battery?
It means the battery is manufactured without mercury, making it a more environmentally friendly option compared to older battery technologies.
How can I be sure this battery is compatible with my watch?
Check your watch's manual or look at the markings on the old battery. The Renata REN377 is equivalent to other designations like SR626SW or 377. If your watch uses one of these, it's likely compatible.
What is the main advantage of the high silver content?
The high silver content provides a more stable voltage and significantly increases the battery's lifespan, offering up to 60% more power compared to standard batteries.
Can I replace the battery myself?
Battery replacement can be done by individuals with the right tools and a careful approach. However, if you are uncomfortable or lack the necessary equipment, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional watchmaker.
What is the 'SP PACK' designation?
SP PACK typically refers to a special formulation or packaging that indicates enhanced performance and quality, often associated with Renata's higher-tier coin cell offerings.
How should I store unused Renata REN377 batteries?
Store them in their original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture.
Troubleshooting
Watch not working after battery replacement
Ensure the battery is inserted correctly with the positive (+) side facing up. Check that the battery contacts within the watch are clean and properly aligned. Verify that the replacement battery is indeed a Renata REN377 and is not expired.
Watch is running slow or intermittently
This may indicate a weak or depleted battery, even if new. Re-verify compatibility and ensure no debris is obstructing the watch mechanism. If the issue persists, the watch movement may require servicing.
Battery drains faster than expected
While these batteries offer extended life, certain watch complications or continuous functions (like alarms or chronographs) can increase power consumption. Ensure the watch is not excessively used in its power-draining modes. Confirm that the battery is not faulty; although rare, it's possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These batteries are designed for direct replacement in compatible watch movements. Ensure the watch's power is off before attempting replacement. Use appropriate watchmaking tools, such as a case back opener and non-metallic tweezers, to carefully remove the old battery and insert the new REN377. Always handle batteries by their edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin, which can affect performance.
Compatibility: The REN377 designation is a specific battery size and voltage. It is essential to verify that your watch's movement requires a 377 (also known as SR626SW or equivalent) battery. Consult your watch's manual or the previous battery's markings for confirmation.
Care: Store unused batteries in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not expose batteries to water or fire. Keep out of reach of children.
