There are two correct batteries for the Accutron 214.
Both are silver oxide batteries. One is the #387S and the other is the #394.
The difference is that the #387S comes with a plastic sleeve, the #394 does not. Use an old sleeve with the #394 battery. 

5 packs of #387S Energizer batteries are available  here 

Each photo below shows a #387S on the left and a #394 battery on the right. 
They are the same size, shape and voltage.

View of the battery as it should be placed into your Accutron (un-printed side up). The printed side is facing down

 Photo of what you should see after you drop the battery into your watch. If you can see printing on the battery, you goofed, the battery has been pressed into the plastic spacer up-side-down.

 IMPORTANT:  TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE COIL, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE BATTERY IS SEATED ALL THE WAY DOWN AND FLAT AGAINST THE CIRCUIT BOARD. IF YOU FEEL PRESSURE BEFORE THE BATTERY CAP IS SCREWED ALL THE WAY DOWN, REMOVE THE CAP AND RE-SEAT THE BATTERY
