$A$ button cell used in watches functions as follows:
$Zn_{(s)} + Ag_2O_{(s)} + H_2O_{(l)} \rightarrow 2Ag_{(s)} + Zn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2OH^{-}_{(aq)}$
If the half-cell potentials are:
$Zn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^- \rightarrow Zn_{(s)} \,;\, E^o = -0.76 \, V$
$Ag_2O_{(s)} + H_2O_{(l)} + 2e^- \rightarrow 2Ag_{(s)} + 2OH^{-}_{(aq)} \,;\, E^o = 0.34 \, V$
