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.

Different Types of Watch Crystals

There are 3 main materials used for watch crystals: acrylic, mineral glass, and sapphire/synthetic sapphire.

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 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 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.

“Searched All Over Russia/Ukraine for the Parts Needed”

This particular work order took over a year to fully complete, with the watch being sent back three times for all the work to be done properly. I do understand that this was harder project given that it’s a vintage Russian movement, but I can’t tell you enough how much
