A quick guide to the key components that define a quality timepiece:
1. Movement (Caliber)
The internal mechanism that powers the watch.
Quartz movements are extremely precise and low-maintenance.
2. Dial
The face of the watch, displaying the time and any added features such as date windows or chronograph sub-dials.
3. Hands
The hour, minute and second hands that indicate the time.
4. Case
The protective outer shell. Our Cheetah Watches are crafted from premium 316L stainless steel.
5. Crown
The small side knob used to adjust the time.
6. Crystal
The transparent cover protecting the dial, typically mineral or sapphire-coated for scratch resistance.
7. Strap or Bracelet
The part that secures the watch to your wrist, available in stainless-steel bracelets, high-quality leather or moisture resistant silicone.
8. Clasp or Buckle
The mechanism that keeps the strap fastened, such as a folding clasp for metal bracelets.
