Sony also produces an equivalent battery. The CR2477? wont work - the 1616 means its 16mm diameter and 1.6mm thick so the 24?? is 24mm diameter. Have you seen this site? http://gtouser.wordpress.com/2008/1...ttery-on-a-casio-protrek-solar-powered-watch/ it may be useful to you, cheers, Dave.

The CR2477 is not a re-chargeable, and is a different size.

you can utilize the non-rechargeable version of CTL1616; which would be CR1616 however that is regular lithium ion non-rechargeable; there have been many watch battery replacements made using the CR1616 that seem to work just fine in place of CTL1616 watch batteries; your mileage may vary; the voltage of the CR1616 is 3.0volt lithium-ion; the battery life using the CR1616 may only last about a year and a half to one year but its a lot less expensive to replace also as well.
