The BIOS battery is placed near the vibration motor.

Here are some pictures:

And I think you can change it... as a user, never tried it. My clock was auto-updated by network provider.

I might try warming the terminals with a soldering iron, see if that loosens. But either way I don't think I can read anything the battery may have previously had on it regarding type code; I don't recognise its size, its tiny.
Don't EVER use a soldering iron around batteries, you can end up hurting yourself. Even if you wear safety goggles you can end up having burns on your hands/face/body. So please don't. That battery is not soldered but welded there... Please be careful, and take it to a local service for replacing.
