Why Is Sapphire Crystal on Watches the Best Choice

When it comes to owning a new watch, there are certain features to look out for as this will indicate its true value and craftsmanship. Of particular interest is the type of glass or crystal that acts as the cover for the dial, providing long lasting protection and longevity. Luxury watches including all SONEL NUEN watches are sapphire glass with a anti-reflective coating as standard.

So why should you get a watch with sapphire crystal glass?

1. More stronger than acrylic and mineral crystals, which is often found in watches of poorer quality

Sapphire crystal is known for its hardened strength

2. Scratch resistant

Sapphire crystal is stratch resistant compared to acrylic and mineral crystals. If you're going to buy a watch, then its most likely so that you can tell the time. With a watch with lots of scratches, this is an issue. For luxury watches, this is be standard, unfortunately this is not the case. 

10 sec home test - Find out which crystal on watch 

If you'd like to know which crystal - mineral or sapphire - simply place 1 drop of water onto both watch dials. The droplet of sapphire crystals will hold together in the form of a ball. Mineral crytals on the other hand will fall flat and disperse without holding together.
