Maybe just remove the existing battery and read the numbers on it. Looks like you will need a screwdriver. 😀

Unscrew the big screw about 2 full turns and slide the bridle out. Don't remove the screw.

And be careful of that bridle, if it breaks you are screwed. For safety I would remove the screw so you can slide it out with minimal twist and tension on the bridle.

That's the "winding stem" and depending on the movement, you might not be able to. But that tiny screw nearest the crown tube is what holds it in.

I picked up an old Heuer where the battery bracket was broken and it's been difficult to get repaired, so +1 on this comment.
