I tried it and they came up with the 312 which is for most likely the right one as it is a hearing aid battery. These are Zinc air cells which have a different characteristic than the normally used silver oxide baterries for watches. I guess this old model was a mercury cell and as such is nowadays banned.
Gary, most helpful woulfd be measurung diameter and height of the battery at a tenth of millimeter. Then I should be able to find the correct modern equivalent...
