The Art of Watch Dial Design: How Brands Create Unique and Eye-Catching Faces
Posted by AIS Watches on Apr 13th 2023
When it comes to watch dial design, a lot of brands have fallen into the same trap of making their timepieces look like every other watch on the market. Especially when it comes to men's watches, there are only so many colors and shapes that are acceptable. The most popular colors? Black and brown leather straps with black faces. For many women's watches, there is also a preference for black dials over white ones—except when diamonds are involved!
Diamonds, Diamonds and more Diamonds!
The most popular material for watch dials is diamond. Diamonds are the hardest material on earth, making them perfect for any watch face. Diamonds symbolize wealth and luxury, as well as eternity and power. They're also used in many traditional engagement rings to symbolize love and commitment between two people who want to spend their lives together!
If you want your brand's design to stand out from competitors', consider using diamonds in some way - perhaps by adding a few small pieces around the edge of your watch face?
Gems and Metal Stones
Gems and metal stones are another way to add color to your watch dial. Diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires are all common choices for watchmakers when it comes to adorning their timepieces with precious stones. Each has its own special properties and characteristics that make it unique from the others:
- Diamonds are known for their brilliance and fire (the flashes of colored light they give off). They're also one of the hardest substances on Earth -- so much so that they can cut through other materials like butter! A diamond's hardness makes them perfect for use in tools such as drills or saw blades because they don't wear down easily under pressure or friction like softer gemstones do; this same quality makes them ideal candidates for adorning watches where constant contact with skin could otherwise cause damage over time due to friction between two surfaces moving against each other constantly over long periods of time (like when you're wearing a watch day after day).
- Emeralds have been used since ancient times as protective amulets against evil spirits due to their green coloration being associated with nature in general; today we know that this association stems from both historical factors such as religious beliefs/traditions about spirits living within trees/forests etc., but also scientific ones relating specifically.
Material Science Meets Mechanical Engineering
When it comes to watch dial design, material science and mechanical engineering play a key role. A material scientist is someone who studies the structure, properties and composition of materials. Mechanical engineers use their expertise in physics and mathematics to design, develop and manufacture mechanical systems like cars or airplanes.
Now you might be thinking: "What does this have to do with my watch?" Well let's take a look at two examples of materials that are both material science AND mechanical engineering - carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and sapphire crystal glass!
Watch dials are more than just pretty faces. They are made from exotic materials that are used to tell a story through each unique design.
First, watch dials are not just pretty faces. They tell a story through each unique design. A watch face can be made from many materials and in many ways, which means that there's no limit to what you can do with it! Second, dials are not just for telling time--they're also used as an accessory to express who you are and where your interests lie.
Finally, if you're looking for an eye-catching timepiece with an interesting aesthetic that will make people stop and stare at your wrist rather than theirs (who knows why), then consider investing in an exotic materials.
We hope you've enjoyed learning about the science behind watch dials. It's a fascinating topic, and one that we think you'll be able to apply to your own work as well. After all, every business has its own story to tell through its products and services--and now that we know how important it is for those products and services to be visually appealing, too? Well...that means there are endless possibilities for creating something truly unique!
