by properly recycling the button cell battery in your watch.
Professional jewelers and watch retailers are best

It is important to recycle your watch battery in an
environmentally safe way. Watch batteries contain very
small amounts of mercury, which is required to prevent
corrosion of the battery and damage to your watch. There
is no danger to you or your watch from the mercury
because it is in the sealed battery. But you need to recycle
your watch battery properly. Your professional watch/
jewelry retailer is the best person to do this for you. These
professionals collect used batteries and recycle them
through licensed waste management companies.
