What Are the Identification Methods of Famous Watches, Teach You How to Identify!

What are the methods of name list identification? Now there are many famous brand watches on the market, and the fake watches are also mixed, and many watch lovers will buy fake watches accidentally. So if we want to buy a watch, what should we pay attention to, and what are the common identification methods for famous watches? Let's get acquainted with me below! What are the methods of name list identification?

Ⅰ. Diamond watches: natural diamonds, artificial diamonds, rhinestones (glass diamonds)

Natural diamonds are the hardest of all objects, rated as 10, and man-made diamonds are rated 8-9. Rhinestones (glass diamonds) are less hard than natural and man-made diamonds and are brittle. The price of artificial diamonds and rhinestones is very cheap, only 0.1-0.2 per grain. Therefore, when buying a watch with natural diamonds, you must pay attention to the authenticity, and you can go to the relevant departments for testing if necessary.

Ⅱ. Material of dial components and watch face components: K gold, gold plated, acid gold plated

The surface color of K gold, gold-plated, and acid-plated gold is yellow, which is not easy to distinguish, and it is difficult to distinguish without instrument detection. Some counterfeit products label 10K gold shells as 18K gold shells, and some even fake gold-plated shells as K gold shells. In addition, the thickness of the gold-plated layer of the gold-plated shell is also difficult to measure. Some watches indicate that they are plated with 3 microns of gold, but in fact they are not even 1 micron. The color of the gold has faded after the watch has been used for more than a year. What's more, the aluminum alloy shell plated with acid gold is introduced to be guaranteed to not fade for several years. In actual use, the gold turns black, and even the ability to prevent rust is lost, so consumers are buying. Be sure to ask when you watch.

Ⅲ. Surface glass of watch face components

1. There are three types of dial component glass currently used: plexiglass, ordinary quartz glass and sapphire crystal glass. What is confusing and difficult to distinguish are quartz glass and sapphire crystal glass, which differ greatly in quality and price. Sapphire crystal glass was once called "glass that never wears out", but now it's "glass that doesn't wear out". Its price is about dozens of times that of ordinary quartz glass, so sapphire crystal glass is only used in high-end watches.

2. In the absence of testing instruments, a simple method can be used to distinguish ordinary quartz glass and sapphire crystal glass of dial components. Put a drop of water on the surface of the watch glass, and then place them upright. If the water is a small ball and does not flow, it is sapphire crystal glass. On the contrary, if the water flows down the plane, it is ordinary quartz glass.

Ⅳ. Watch face components: needle

The craftsmanship of the hands is the most telling problem in the identification of watches. Few of the hands of fake watches are well done, such as the place where the needle flag hangs, the needle is uneven, the brightness is not good, and the edges and corners of the needle are not clear. Like ROLEX's second hand, the tail is arced, while the fake watch is flat, while the second hand of some quartz watches is thickened for balance, and so on. Genuine signs and English logos, scales. The printing of the real watch is very unique, the lacquer is very bright, and the printing is high, while the fake watch cannot do this. It is often seen that the printing of some fake watches is blurred and cannot be completely covered.

Ⅴ. Watch face components: movement

1. The dial component movement used in the imported Swiss watch is produced in Switzerland. If it is found that the movement used is produced in Japan, China or other countries, the watch is a fake and inferior product. Imported Japanese watches with movements made in Japan. If it is found that the movement used is produced in Switzerland or other countries, the watch must also be a counterfeit product.

2. Secondly, the plywood or pendulum in the genuine trademark movement is marked with the words of the trademark sign, the movement is stable in the case assembly, and the movement is clean. There is no trademark sign on the splint or pendulum in the counterfeit watch movement, or the trademark sign is rough, blurred, skewed or simply pasted with a small copper sheet, the watch dial component movement is not clean, and some movements have copper filings , hair strands, fingerprints, etc.

Ⅵ. Digital identification

General watches have case model and movement model. High-end watches should also have the production serial number of the watch, the production serial number of the movement and the strap. These marks are marked on the inside and outside of the back cover of the watch. In addition, some watches also have numbers on the inside and outside of the strap lugs. The fake watch is marked or not. However, pay attention to the observation that the marking of the fake watch is relatively shallow, some are engraved crookedly, some are the wrong size of the word code, or do not conform to the coding rules of the watch or the number of digits is too long.

For professional-level watch identification, it is necessary to disassemble the appearance and check the movement components. For example, the most inappropriate places, such as the piercing nails, sleeves, and strap sections of the strap. Because even the most brilliant fakes don't do these places, these parts are obviously different from the original watch. The spring of the watch is connected to the elastic bolt of the case and the strap. The spring of the fake watch is generally purchased, so it is different from the real watch.
