295-7600 Replacement Battery for Citizen Eco-Drive –

Product Overview

The 295-7600 replacement battery is a precision-engineered rechargeable sealed capacitor designed specifically for select Citizen Eco-Drive watch movements. Ideal for watch repair professionals and enthusiasts, this component ensures reliable performance in models using the A930, A980, B020, B023, B030, B031, B033, B035, B080, F780, MT516, and MT516F movements. It replaces the original power cell without compromising the watch’s light-powered functionality. Before purchasing, users must confirm their movement number to ensure compatibility. This capacitor restores full operation to Eco-Drive watches that no longer hold a charge or exhibit inconsistent timekeeping due to power storage issues.

Key Features

• Exact Movement Compatibility: Designed for seamless integration with a wide range of Citizen Eco-Drive movements, including A930, A980, B020, B023, B030, B031, B033, B035, B080, F780, MT516, and MT516F. Always verify your watch’s internal movement number prior to installation to ensure proper fit.
• Graphene-Enhanced Efficiency: Utilizes imported premium cells combined with superconducting graphene technology, resulting in 20% greater power efficiency compared to standard replacements. This innovation supports longer charge retention and more consistent energy delivery between light exposures.
• Ultra-Thin Construction: Features a reduced 0.23mm steel shell that maximizes internal capacity while maintaining a compact form. This slim profile ensures compatibility with the original housing without requiring modifications to the watch case or movement.
• Rapid Light Reactivation: After installation, the capacitor requires exposure to direct sunlight or a bright artificial light source for 3–5 hours to achieve a full charge. This step reactivates the energy storage cell and restores accurate timekeeping functionality.
• Sealed Leak-Proof Design: The fully sealed construction prevents electrolyte leakage, protecting delicate internal watch components from damage. This design also maintains stable voltage output over time, reducing the risk of power fluctuations that can affect timekeeping precision.
• Temperature Resilience: Built to perform reliably across varying environmental conditions, the capacitor withstands normal temperature changes encountered during daily wear, ensuring consistent operation in different climates.
• Comprehensive Warranty Coverage: Includes a 30-day return window and a full 12-month replacement warranty. Support is provided by a US-based customer service team that typically responds within 12 hours to inquiries or warranty claims.

Benefits & Use Cases

This replacement capacitor is essential for restoring functionality to Citizen Eco-Drive watches that have lost the ability to hold a charge. It is particularly useful for owners of older or vintage Eco-Drive models where the original power cell has degraded over time. Watchmakers and repair technicians can rely on this component for accurate, long-term replacements during servicing. The graphene-enhanced design supports more efficient energy conversion, making it suitable for users who frequently rely on light charging in low-exposure environments. Since the capacitor reactivates fully after just a few hours of light exposure, it quickly returns the watch to reliable daily use without requiring frequent recharging.

Owners of compatible movements benefit from extended service life without the need for full movement replacement. The stable voltage output ensures consistent timekeeping performance, which is critical for precision time measurement. This replacement part maintains the original Eco-Drive functionality, allowing the watch to recharge naturally through ambient light as intended by the manufacturer.

Important Notes

Before purchasing, it is essential to confirm the movement number inside your Citizen watch. This information is typically found on the movement plate and must match one of the supported models listed. Installing an incompatible capacitor may result in poor performance or damage. After installation, the watch must be exposed to direct sunlight or a bright lamp for 3–5 hours to fully charge the new capacitor and reactivate timekeeping. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures or moisture during this initial charging phase. The product is covered by a 12-month replacement warranty and a 30-day return policy. For assistance, customers can contact the US-based support team, which typically responds within 12 hours.
