Types of Watch Crystal Replacement Services
Cracked Crystals Affecting Movements
In some cases, when a watch crystal is shattered, it is important to check on the watch movement since microscopic glass or sapphire particles can get into the movement causing damage. This can cause the need for watch movement servicing, and potentially replacement of movement parts.
Please note that these additional procedures may result in further repair costs beyond the crystal replacement itself.
Different Types of Watch Crystals
There are 3 main materials used for watch crystals: acrylic, mineral glass, and sapphire/synthetic sapphire.
Acrylic
Crystals
Acrylic Crystals are:
- The most affordable and the softest material used for watch crystals
- Shatter resistant, but they do scratch easily or even crack with a hard impact
- Usually able to be buffed out for shallow scratches since it is a softer material
- Can be molded into different and unique shapes unlike other crystal materials
Mineral Glass
Crystals
Mineral Glass Crystals are:
- Harder than acrylic crystals
- Not able to scratch quite as easily, but can shatter with a hard impact
- The most commonly used material for watch crystals today
- The most popular crystal choice by manufacturers
Synthetic Sapphire
Crystals
Synthetic Sapphire Crystals are:
- The hardest material used for watch crystals and often labeled as scratch resistant
- The most expensive
- Is lab grown, but has the same chemical composition as natural sapphire; Sapphire is the second hardest element, with diamond being the hardest
- Synthetic Sapphire crystals can chip or even shatter with a hard impact. Many luxury watch manufacturers use sapphire crystals.
Vintage or Specialized
Movement Services
Vintage Watch Movement Services differ from more modern models as finding parts for these watches can be a challenge, but our long history with the industry has given us access to great sources.
If you require a different kind of repair or service for your timepiece or have a specialized type of watch movement, feel free to Contact Us to consult about your timepiece.
