Women's watch with a ceramic bracelet

Wrist watches are bought for many years. Therefore, it is so important for them to have a high durability indicator, depending not so much on the clockwork, as on the material from which their case and bracelet is made. Moreover, metal is far from the most optimal solution, because some scratches on this material cannot be polished at all. It is much more correct to buy men's or women's watches with a ceramic bracelet, because high-tech clay is a heavy-duty material created by mankind with the help of the latest technologies.

Wrist chronometers and bracelets made of ceramics "saw the light" relatively recently. In 1986, the world famous brand Rado The first watch movements were made from a new high-strength material. Since that time, they have managed to win great admiration and genuine respect for real fans of watch movements.

Considering the issue of the cost of ceramic products (it must be said that ceramics does not belong to expensive categories), it should be understood that the price varies depending on the type of clay / metal alloy used in the manufacture of a particular model. Thus, it can be assumed that any person can buy a watch with a ceramic bracelet, even one who does not have large incomes.

The most common technology is the use of either carbide powder or zirconium oxide. They are amenable to pressing in a special form and fired under the influence of ultra-high temperatures. When a specific color is needed, the ceramic powder is mixed with the coloring powder. The last stage is polished with diamond grit - it is she who gives the product a characteristic shine.

It should also be mentioned that heavy-duty ceramics are used not only in the creation of the case and bracelets, similar to volcanic glass. The addition of rare earth lanthanum to the ceramic powder made it possible to create a material that is not inferior in strength even to diamond. Therefore, it is not surprising that watch movements themselves can be made from such material.

In terms of color preferences, white ceramics are the most popular among modern female audiences. The ideal solution to demonstrate the delicate taste and commitment to tradition will be to purchase chronometers in two shades at once - in white and black. Thus, the owner will provide herself with an ideal color ratio with any clothes, because white is more suitable for summer light bows, and black - for clothes of the cold season.

Ceramics has become so attractive to watchmakers around the world, primarily because of its universal properties:

• Plasticity, allowing the master to receive interesting forms, to experiment endlessly and create products resembling rubber or carbon models.
• Ease alloy after all, ceramics is inferior to these indicators not only gold and steel, but even titanium.
• Hypoallergenic and hygienic - this parameter puts ceramics out of competition. Any metal, although rare, can cause irritation, whereas clay, even if part of the alloy, will always be safe.
• Stylish - it is difficult to imagine an ugly ceramic chronometer. All watches are recognized as the personification of good taste. That is why, despite their “young” age, they have already earned the status of restrained modern classics.
• Color fastness - watches made of ceramics never turn yellow and will not fade.
• Convenience in wearing and ease of care. And indeed, such accessories are rarely repaired, and the ease of products and the feeling of their warmth provide unsurpassed wearing comfort.
• Excellent protection of the watch mechanism against external influence - this quality was the result of electro and heat resistance of ceramics.
• Resistance to high temperatures and electromagnetic radiation.

Not so long ago, when talking about a women's watch with a ceramic bracelet, everyone understood that this was Rado products. Today, such brands as Dior, Lancaster, Jacques Lemans and Essence have taken over the baton from the production of chronometers and their ceramic accessories. After studying the numerous reviews of grateful customers, you can make the following rating of watches made of ceramics, the most popular among Russian consumers:

• Anne Klein - this famous American brand has a collection of "Ceramics". This series stands out for classic execution and strict forms. Cases in it are made of cases and bracelets. Every detail "breathes" elegance.
• Ceramic strap Samsung Gear S3. It is quite enough for the customer to fully feel all the advantages of the new material, combined with a clockwork made from other alloys.
• Geneva is a black watch with a floral ceramic bracelet. One of the advantages of this model is the combination of all the above-mentioned positive qualities of ceramics and a very affordable cost.
• Cartier (white quartz watch with a ceramic bracelet) - the personification of presentability and reliability.

But it happens that the model is liked, and the bracelet is too large. Of course, this should not be an obstacle, especially after studying the instructions below.

We are talking exclusively about ceramic bracelets with a sectional structure. In order not to resort to the help of a workshop and remove the links yourself, it is necessary to prepare the place as follows:

• prepare writing or dining table, desk lamp;
• pick up a tray with walls that protects against the loss of small parts of the bracelet;
• from tools to take small hammer, miniature pliers or tweezers, a needle (thin awl) to push the pins.

In the first variant, sharp tools help to press in the spring-loaded pin. This must be done very carefully, with maximum control of the stud so that it does not fly away. After removing an unnecessary fragment, the pin is inserted back. With proper placement of the pin, a distinctive click will sound.

The essence of the second method is that each link is removed using a special time screwdriver. Also, experts recommend the use of a special tool before removing a certain number of links.In fact, the second method is more suitable for bracelets made of ceramics. Also, when assembling, you must be careful, as the frame links with holes are placed last. Another way to reduce the bracelet will not work.

When somehow the bracelet broke, the watch needs to be cleaned or worse - to solder, it would be very rash to fix the problem with your own hands. The best solution is to turn to professionals.. Using original spare parts, they will qualitatively and quickly restore the accessory: polish the product, solder damaged parts, provide the missing horseshoes and pins.
