It is not only the watch glass that gets worn, but also the heart of the watch lover

    Nowadays, watches have seen many innovations and improvements in materials. Take watch crystals, for instance: the plastic glass crystals used in older style watches have been replaced with sapphire crystals, raising both aesthetics and scratch resistance by leaps and bounds. Of course, because sapphire is also mineral glass, it is susceptible to environmental influences, leading to wear and shattering. If it is accidentally dropped on the ground or rubbed against hard objects, it will leave “ marks ” on the sapphire surface.

　　If it is scratched or worn by car keys or other hard objects, it generally does not affect use, though the water resistance of the watch will be slightly affected. It can be sent to a shop for maintenance and repair.

　　In the event of a more serious accident, such as a shattered crystal or broken edges causing severe damage, you should pull out the crown promptly to stop the movement. Do not pull the hands or quick-set the date to prevent glass shards from entering the inside of the movement, avoiding greater damage. Send it to a shop for repair promptly, and instruct the repair personnel not to let glass shards enter the dial.

　　However, nowadays replica manufacturers such as the N factoryReplica watchesall use wear-resistant and durable sapphire crystals, which are also treated with anti-reflective coating to allow for clear time-reading even under harsh, bright sunlight. Although sapphire crystals are so sturdy, as watch lovers we still need to care for them carefully, because it is not just the crystal that gets worn, but the heart that loves watches.
