The strap: Also called a bracelet, has the function of ensuring that the Custom Mens Watches fits perfectly on your wrist.
The watch case: Possibly, it is the most important part of these accessories. All the elements that compose it are anchored or mounted on it. It is made up of the cover, at the back, the different types of buttons and the compartment itself called the same name, where we can find all the parts that make up a watch. Its function is to protect all the mechanisms, in addition to containing the different elements that make up the watch. In addition, being the most visible part, its aesthetics take on special importance. They can be found in countless materials.
Hands and dial: The sphere or dial is the base where all the design of the surface of the watch is contained. Generally, it is usually made of metallic components such as brass, copper or zinc, and in luxury watches, silver or gold. It is usually a very broad element that encompasses innumerable designs, where rounded and square shapes predominate.
The hands are usually fixed in the center of the dial, and are the ones that mark the hours. They can be of various formats (harpoon, wavy, arrowhead, inverted heart) and contribute to giving the watch its personality.
Crystal: The glass is in charge of giving protection to the hands and spheres. At the same time, it provides different degrees of tightness depending on its thickness. They are mounted on the case under pressure and can have different treatments, such as anti-reflective ones. They are usually made of plexiglass in mid-range or low-end models and synthetic sapphire (a material that provides great resistance to bumps and scratches) in high-end ones.
Bezel: This element is found in some types of watches to reinforce their tightness or as a decorative element. You can see them fixed, mobile or simply decorative. The swivels are graduated with minutes and are used for various activities such as diving or mountaineering, among others.
Crown: The crown is the mechanism through which you can adjust different functions of the watch, such as its time, set the stopwatch or wind it. It is anchored to the caliber by means of the stem, and can be threaded or pressured. Some watch brands include their logo on it to decorate it, and in some models it can even protrude from its case or even be protected.
Caliber or watch movement: This mechanism is one of the most important parts of a wristwatch. And it is that, without a well-adjusted gear, the Custom Womens Watches would not have the utility that we give them. It is what we can call its engine, to the point that some specialists call it the heart or brain of these objects. They can be mechanical movement, what we know as wind-up watches, or quartz in those that are automatic.
All parts of a wristwatch are extremely important to its function. Although you can see countless models with a multitude of designs and shapes, they all have most of the same components. Now that you know them, you will be able to appreciate much more the inseparable companion of your watch.
