Anyone who wears a women's watch daily will sooner or later encounter small scratches and signs of wear. Sapphire glass is therefore an interesting choice if you are looking for a watch whose dial remains clear and neat for as long as possible. The material is known for its high scratch resistance and is widely used in watches from the higher segment.
At Jeweler Van de Heyning in Oud-Turnhout, you will find women's watches with sapphire glass in various styles and price ranges.
What is sapphire glass?
Despite its name, sapphire glass is not made of the kind of blue gemstone found in jewelry. It is synthetically produced sapphire, a very hard material suitable for watch glass.
Its hardness makes it particularly resistant to scratches. A women's watch with sapphire glass is therefore interesting for those who wear their watch frequently and value a long-lasting clear dial.
However, sapphire is not completely unbreakable. With a heavy impact, this material can also be damaged. Hardness and impact resistance are not the same.
Sapphire glass versus mineral glass
The choice of glass affects the durability of a watch. Mineral glass is a widely used and affordable option and offers a good combination of clarity and sturdiness.
Sapphire glass is particularly interesting due to its higher scratch resistance. That is why it is often found in luxury women's watches and high-quality watches.

Women's watches with sapphire glass in different styles
Sapphire glass does not determine how a watch looks. The material is used in both classic and modern models.
An elegant watch with a leather strap, for example, pairs well with a formal outfit. A model with a metal strap tends to have a more modern look. For this, also check out our collection of women's watches with steel straps.
For an understated design, minimalist women's watches are interesting. Those who prefer a bit more detail can look at watches with stones.
Why sapphire glass is interesting for daily use
The more often you wear a watch, the greater the chance that it will hit a doorframe, table, or other hard surface. Sapphire glass mainly helps against the small scratches that can occur with normal use.
This makes the material interesting for a watch that you don't just wear on special occasions. Sapphire glass can also be a clear added value for a business or daily watch.

Sapphire glass in automatic and quartz watches
Sapphire glass is not linked to a specific type of movement. You will find it in both automatic watches and quartz watches.
An automatic watch with sapphire glass, for example, appeals to lovers of mechanical watchmaking who want to wear their timepiece regularly. Quartz with sapphire glass, on the other hand, is a practical combination for those primarily seeking accuracy, ease of use, and scratch resistance.
