I bought this clock online and it said it would work with a "small watch battery" The hole in the back is 6mm deep x17mm diameter. Could anyone help with what kind of battery I need? will this even work? I don't see anything inside that the battery would even contact. But I don't know much about these things... please help me.

The battery doesn't fill the whole cavity, doofus.

>you're crazy because you need a clear piture of my shitty $8 watch to tell me what battery I need, with only the hole as a guide.
Whatever you say, cucko.

There are hundreds of watch batteries so you'll need a model number or something to look it up. From the first picture you posted take that white plastic piece out, then update us with another picture. Watch batteries usually slip underneath a piece of metal and there appears to be a piece of metal on the top portion towards where the robots head is so it might go there. Take better pictures and remove the plastic piece so we can see what's underneath. In this picture you can see how the watch battery goes into the black hole and the piece of metal rests on top of it

But like I said there's a ton of different ones so you probably need a model number or something to look it up

I'm a jeweler (no seriously), I also do watch and clock repair. If I were to put money on it it's battery #377. It's the most common non-lithium watch battery. I've changed maybe 20 watch batteries a day for 8 years
It looks like that is it. Alternatively you can bring it to a jeweler and pay 4-10 dollars for a watch battery.
Take it to a watch shop and ask them? Then they an even SELL you what you need while youre there
It looks like you'd need to stack a few if its the flat one

Not OP but a related question, do most jewelers change out crystals for relatively cheap?

Seconding this. Looks like a cheapo mechanism that take 377/376, also known as SR626. Buy a Maxell or Energizer battery because cheap ones are a waste of time.
The battery will likely sit in a cavity under where the circle shaped piece of the plastic retainer is covering, positive (flat) side up.

If you already have the crystal yes. Maybe 20 bucks at most to replace it for you
Where I work if I had to cut one it would be 30-120 depending on size and if you want sapphire coated or not.
At work right now
