Swatch Watches feature an easy access battery hatch cover on the back of the watch. This is one of the main reasons Swatch Watches have become so successful and popular. The battery cover can be opened by using a coin, (10p in the UK) where as some manufacturers require specialist tools or equipment. Therefore a battery change on a Swatch Watch can be achieved by anyone at home.
The Casio watch is powered by a single CR2016 lithium button cell, which Casio claims will last approximately seven years (assuming 20 seconds of alarm and one second of light usage per day).
