Cebelar123: Tudi to kje bi jo nabavil sem že tuhtal. Da, ta link ki si mi ga prilepil, je cenej ampak se v trgovini tudi da dobiti kaj popusta. Danes mi delavka v Slowatch ni znala točno povedati koliko, vendar sem na spletni strani videl, da če prineseš staro uro in zamenjaš z novo že takoj dobiš 13%. Tako da je že takoj cenej kot na amazonu. Sem kar presenečen, da ni skorajda nobene razlike pri teh modelih ali naročaš iz tujine ali kupiš v trgovini.

Ja večina kupcev je pri nas preveč zapečkarska, meni so tudi vsi govorili kako je tujina cenejša, pa sem ugotovil nasprotno. Res se moraš pa upati pomoliti nos v trgovino.

Pa je ta razlika velika? Ima kdo izkušnje z obema materialoma?

Česarkoli drugega med mineral glass in Hardlex, torej da bi bil nek pojačano mineralno steklo, ki ni brandano pod Hardlex, pa mi ni znano niti za kej tazga še nisem slišal. Imaš mogče kakšen link na to temo, da si preberem?

The type of crystal used on a watch is a very important factor to consider when making a watch purchase. The better or harder the crystal, the more likely you are to keep the crystal free of scratches. There are several different qualities of crystals available on watches today,. In descending order they are:

Sapphire Crystal
Sapphflex Crystal
Hardened Mineral Crystal
Acrylic (Plastic)

Sapphire Crystal
Sapphire crystals are generally reserved for the finest watches due to their manufacturing expense. A sapphire crystal is literally a lab grown sapphire that has been shaped and polished to fit the face of the watch. Because of the incredible hardness of sapphire, these types of crystals are nearly impossible to scratch.

Sapphflex Crystal
The Sapphflex crystal was introduced by Seiko Watch Corporation in the early 90?s. This crystal uses a thin sheet of sapphire crystal which has been bonded to the top of a mineral crystal. Due to the hardness of the thin sapphire crystal, these types of crystals rarely scratch.

Hardened Mineral Crystal
The mineral crystal is the most common type of watch crystal used in mid-range watches. This crystal is hard, but not as hard as a sapphire crystal, hence it is more likely to be scratched over years of wear.

Acrylic (Plastic)
This clear material has been used for many years as a way to protect and enclose the face of a watch. It is very soft and very susceptible to scratching. An acrylic watch face is the only face that can be buffed occasionally to remove scratches. This is the cheapest type of watch face, but has been used on all ranges of watches over the years.

hardened mineral crystal
Glass (or crystal) that has been tempered to resist scratching used for the exterior dial to make a watch more scratch-resistant than with the use of synthetic glass.

"The surface is refined through a chemical treatment or heating. It is about as twice as scratch-resistant as normal mineral crystal." TrustedWatch.com

NOTES: 1. "Mineral glass, even though it has been hardened by a tempering process, is more likely to break than Plexiglas. But it is also more scratch-resistant than Plexiglas." Encycyclopedia of Watch Terms
2. "A mineral crystal will however scratch and is extremely difficult to polish." TimeFactors
3. Mineral glass has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale (compared to Sapphire 9). It is prone to scratching, chipping and may crack or shatter if dropped.

Hardlex glass
Seiko's trademarked name for: "[...] a toughened mineral crystal glass developed by Seiko Watch Corporation which is highly resistant to knocks and scratching. Hardlex glasses are standard in all Seiko non-sports models.
