Can Titanium Be Made Into Watches?

Watch is a necessity in People's Daily life, the case and chain dosage of 90% of the watch material. Traditional watches are manufactured brass, surface processing is made after the plating nickel, etc, this kind of watch surface layer contains a large number of nickel, wear often produce "nickel allergy", then the adopt stainless steel watch, but due to the same nickel and chromium in stainless steel, with the element of human body skin allergic reaction will happen as a result, starting in the 1980 s, The scientific and technological personnel began to study the use of titanium and human affinity good watch case, watchband, chain, buckle and other parts.

Titanium as watch material, with timing function from high-grade waterproof, sports watches, Japan titanium watch development are the two big manufacturers by the citizen and Seiko high-grade titanium sports watches on the market at the same time, then watch Japanese company since 1973 to develop the whole titanium watches, for applying titanium to watch, in the process of nearly 30 years of research, Researchers have solved seven major technical challenges, including pressure forming, surface processing, cutting, wear resistance, weldability, decoration, and biological adaptability.

Therefore, the modern titanium watch has the following characteristics: light, weight is 60% of stainless steel; Resistant to human sweat and seawater corrosion; It has the best specific strength in metal materials; Surface hardness is twice that of stainless steel; There is no general metal cold feeling when wearing; Good skin affinity, no allergic reaction; The decoration effect is good.

At present, the production of titanium watches uses industrial pure titanium, TC4 titanium alloy. In the early 1990s, the first batch of titanium watches entered the market and the price is extremely high, then due to the increase in production and process improvement, watch casings can be adopted through investment casting, sheet stamping molding, and powder metallurgy method manufacturing, the price is reduced accordingly, titanium watches have turned to high-end watches to the popular.
