Need battery for Omega Seamaster (Movement 1438)

Due to the sea water leak in my Omega seamaster,
I opened it try to dry it but I lost the battery while drying it. Bad me :-(
Does anyone have information on what type of
battery it used?
My father gave to me as a gift about 10 years ago.
I don't know exactly what model it is.
The bracelet has the model 1455/448
The movement shows a number 1438
It does not have a screm type back, basical I used
a sharp knife to open the back.
It has 53233451 print on the back I think it's S/N
Looks similar to the the follow URL's iamge

Except it has only the hour and minute hand.
Hope this someone can identify the type and batery
for me.
Thanks,

John
