Investigation into Surface Treatment and Finishing on CollectWatches

Investigation on surface treatment technology of Collectwatches

As a kind of jewelry, a watch is not only a recording tool of time, but also a reflection of taste. The surface treatment of the watch is an integral part, affecting the beauty and durability of the watch's appearance. This article will introduce the investigation of Collectwatch surface treatment technology, including the treatment methods and characteristics of bracelet, case and watch mirror.

Bracelet handling skills

Bracelet processing techniques are generally divided into two types: metal bracelet and leather bracelet.

Metal bracelets generally use brushing and polishing processes. The drawing process is achieved through a mechanical grinder or manual grinding tool, which can produce fine grooves on the surface of the bracelet, making it more delicate and smooth. The polishing process can increase the brightness and reflectivity of the surface, making the metal bracelet more gorgeous.

Leather bracelets require dyeing, waxing and hot stamping. The dyeing process requires the selection of high-quality leather, which must be rigorously polished and treated before dyeing to prevent uneven dyeing of the leather bracelet. Waxing can improve the gloss of the leather bracelet and make it more textured. Hot stamping is the process of printing or hot stamping or silvering on the leather bracelet to enhance the visual effect of the watch.

case handling skills

Case processing skills are also very critical, directly affecting the appearance and service life of the surface. At present, there are two main methods of case treatment: polishing and frosting.

The polishing process can enhance the gloss and reflectivity of the case, but it also makes the surface more susceptible to scratches and wear. Therefore, the polishing process needs to be made of high-quality stainless steel and combined with a scratch-resistant watch mirror to extend its service life.

The frosting process can eliminate the gloss of the surface and make it more stable and low-key. However, it should be noted that the frosted treatment may cause the surface details of the case to be lost, and the choice needs to be made based on specific needs.

Watch mirror processing technology

The processing technology of table mirrors is mainly divided into plexiglass mirrors, sapphire crystal mirrors and ceramic mirrors.

The plexiglass watch mirror needs to be made of high-quality transparent plexiglass material and undergoes ultrasonic cleaning, optical treatment and other processes. This ensures the transparency and hardness of the watch mirror and prevents it from being scratched and broken.

The sapphire crystal watch mirror is made of brightly colored artificial sapphire crystal material, which is then optically polished and polished to ensure the hardness and transparency of the surface.

Ceramic watch mirror is an emerging watch mirror material with high hardness, scratch resistance and wear resistance. The production process requires high temperature and pressure, and a variety of colors can be selected.

The inspection content of watch surface treatment technology is very rich and needs to be selected based on the specific situation. Although different processing techniques have their own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages, they are all designed to ensure the appearance and service life of the watch, which deserves our careful study and attention.
