Facet Strass Swiss Ladies Watch J5.007.M

The name Jowissa is a combination of the surname and lastname of the company founder Josef Wyss. He founded Jowissa in the village of Bettlach, Switzerland in 1951. Jowissa has been active and in business without interruption since then.

The expected battery life is 2 to 4 years depending on external factors like heat and cold. Jowissa uses standard silver oxide battery cells in combination with high quality and low energy consuming Swiss quartz movements.

Leather bands should not be washed with water. For cleaning your strap refer to your local watch dealer to get a special leather cleaning product.

A Jowissa watch is tested for 3 to 20 ATM water resistance depending on the collection.
3 ATM: Watches tested for 3 ATM should not be worn when bathing or showering. They are build to withstand light rain, sweat and brief water contact.
5 ATM: Watches tested for 5 ATM are made to withstand rain, sweat and short swims.
10 ATM: Short dives, swim and other water sports are ok
20 ATM: Deep Dives, swims and other water sports are ok.

Jowissa's croco style straps are crafted from fine calf leather. These straps are designed to emulate the elegant appearance of genuine crocodile leather through a special embossing process that creates the distinctive crocodile pattern.

This choice of high-quality calf leather allows us to offer straps that are both aesthetically appealing and durable, while also adhering to ethical and sustainable practices. The embossed crocodile pattern provides the desired sophisticated look and texture.

A water resistance rating of 3 ATM indicates that your timepiece is splash-resistant. It is designed to withstand accidental contact with water, such as handwashing or light rain.

However, a Jowissa watch with a water resistance rating of 3 ATM is not suitable for swimming.

The water pressure encountered during swimming, particularly with arm movements or when submerged, can exceed the protection level of a 3 ATM rating. This can lead to water entering the watch case and potentially damaging the movement, which would not be covered under warranty.

For water-related activities, we recommend considering Jowissa models with a higher water resistance rating. You can find detailed information about the water resistance of your specific watch model in the product specifications on our website.

It's important to consider the context in which "diamonds" might be mentioned in the watch description.

If the specifications of your Jowissa watch indicate "Diamonds" as hour markers, then these are indeed small, genuine diamonds that have been carefully set onto the dial to mark the hours. We use real diamonds in select models to enhance their elegance and luxury.

However, the term "diamond" is also significant in relation to Jowissa's distinct design element: the diamond-cut glass. This refers to a specific step in the production process where the edges of the watch crystal are precisely cut using diamond tools. This meticulous cutting technique creates the multi-faceted, brilliant edge that is a hallmark of many Jowissa timepieces. While diamond tools are used in this process to achieve the characteristic sharp and reflective finish, it does not mean that the watch itself contains diamonds as part of the glass. The "diamond cut" refers to the style and the method of achieving it, not the material of the glass edge itself.

Therefore, please refer to the specific features listed for your watch model. If "Diamonds" are mentioned as hour markers, they are genuine. If the description highlights a "diamond-cut glass," this refers to a design and manufacturing technique applied to the crystal edge for aesthetic purposes.

The transparent cover on your watch face, which is often called the crystal, is not made of real diamond. Instead, Jowissa watches use high-quality materials such as mineral glass or sapphire crystal for their watch crystals.

Real diamonds are very precious and have a high cost. If watch crystals were made from genuine diamonds, the price of the watch would be significntly higher.

The materials we use, mineral glass and sapphire crystal, are chosen because they offer good protection for the watch face, allowing you to easily read the time. Sapphire crystal is especially known for its excellent durability and resistance to scratches, even more so than mineral glass.

Therefore, while the crystal on your Jowissa watch is not a real diamond, it is made of qualitative materials selected for their clarity and protective properties, ensuring the longevity and readability of your timepiece.

Mineral crystal, which is used in most Jowissa watches, is a type of glass that's been treated to make it a bit tougher than regular glass. Think of the glass in a smart phone screen – mineral crystal is similar to that.

Because it's treated, mineral crystal is more resistant to scratches than a plain glass window. It can handle everyday wear and tear pretty well, like little bumps and rubs against things.

However, it's not as hard as some other materials, like sapphire crystal. This means that if your watch rubs against something really hard, like certain types of rock or even another piece of glass with a higher hardness, it could potentially get a scratch.

Here's the main idea:
- Mineral crystal is more scratch-resistant than regular glass.
- It can handle most of the little bumps and scrapes you might have during the day.
- However, it's not completely scratch-proof, and harder materials can still scratch it.

So, while your Jowissa watch with a mineral crystal is pretty durable for everyday use, it's still a good idea to be a little careful with it to keep it looking its best!

Most of our Jowissa watch crystals are made with mineral glass. Think of it like the glass in your windows, but a bit tougher. It can handle everyday wear and tear pretty well and is more scratch resistant than regular plastic.

However, just like anything made of glass, it's not completely scratch-proof. Really hard or sharp things could potentially leave a mark.

For some of our more premium collections, we also use sapphire crystal. Sapphire is very tough! It's much harder than mineral glass and offers even better scratch resistance. You'll usually find this mentioned in the specific watch description if it has a sapphire crystal.

Let's summarize:
Mineral glass (most Jowissa watches): Good scratch resistance for daily use.
Sapphire crystal (some premium models): Excellent scratch resistance, very durable.

To keep your Jowissa Watch looking its best, it's still a good idea to be mindful of bumps and scrapes against hard surfaces.
