00:00Fix Dead Seiko Watches with MT920 Capacitors
00:04Your Seiko Kinetic stopped ticking, and you think it's done.
00:08Wrong.
00:09Most dead Kinetics just lost their charge capacitor,
00:12and the whole watch comes back to life with one tiny battery swap.
00:15I dug through the top sellers for the best MT920 deals so you don't have to.
00:21Starting with the one most people grab first, this original Panasonic MT9 2030 23-24X,
00:27a genuine 1.5V cell from the factory that built it.
00:31It slots straight into Seiko Calibre's 5J21, 5J22, 5J32, 5S21, 5S22, and 7D46.
00:4115 bucks, and with close to 5,000 sold, it's clearly the crowd favorite.
00:46Now this one's my top pick for value.
00:49Same genuine Panasonic 3023-24T cell,
00:53complete with the little tags so you can label batteries when you've got a drawer full of them.
00:58Fits the same Seiko Kinetic calibers, it's rated a full 5 stars,
01:02and it lands under 13 bucks, cheaper than the original Panasonic listing and it usually ships easier.
01:08Best bang for money right here.
01:10If you just want the cheapest way to get moving, look at this 3023-24 DMT920 for 10 bucks flat.
01:18It's the same rechargeable capacitor format, and it also covers the older V192, V194, V195, V198, and EFB503 SBD movements.
01:29It's a no-name brand instead of Panasonic, so treat it as your beater battery perfect for a spare,
01:34a backup, or a watch you're not precious about yet.
01:38Next up is this one-piece lot of 3023-24X cells, again the MT920 format, again the same Seiko Kinetic
01:45caliber list.
01:47$12, nearly 5,000 units sold, and 4.6 stars from buyers.
01:52Solid mid-range option that doesn't feel like a gamble.
01:56One quick tip before you order, after you swap the capacitor,
02:00set the watch to 12 and pull the crown straight out to the second click to wake the movement.
02:04All the links are in the description, so grab whichever one fits your watch.
