Case
表壳
The case is the body that houses the watch movement. It s usually made up of three parts: middle, bezel, and back. Cases come in a variety of shapes and sizes.  A strap, bangle arm, bracelet or chain (on pendant or pocket watches) is usually attached to the case. 表壳功能∶用来安置机芯。一般有3部分组成：表玻璃，表圈与表底盖。表壳有各种各样的形状和尺寸。表壳上配有表带，手镯式，手链式，或链形腕带。（怀表上通常配有垂饰）

Bezel表圈
The Bezel is the component on the case encircling the dial. It can be a separate piece or made as part of the case (less expensive). If there is a bezel on the watch please specify whether it is fixed or rotating (can be turned). If there are stones on the bezel please detail whether setting is glued (on alloy) or prong set (brass jewelry watches). If there are bezel markers please detail if ink filled on production sheets.
表圈是表壳的组成部分，环绕表面。它可以做成和表壳分开的或和表壳是一体的（一体的便宜点）.如果表壳上有表圈请注明是固定的还是可旋转的。如果表圈上有钻，请注明是胶粘钻（合金上用）或定型镶钻（黄铜珠宝表）。如果表圈上有时标请在生产单上详述是否是油压时标。
transparent中文意思
Crystals and/or faux crystals on bezel, case, dial
表镜和，表圈，表壳，表面上的水晶/或人造水晶
We usually use either China crystals or Czech crystals. China crystals are less expensive and should be used when color is available. Never use China crystals if clear color. The clear China crystals are very yellow. It is better to use Czech crystals for clear color. We can also consider using plastic chips on children’s watches if qty is high enough.
我们常用的表镜来自中国水晶或捷克水晶。中国的表水晶/玻璃比较便宜，如果有我们需要的颜一定要用中国制造的。但是记住不要用中国的透明表玻璃。中国的透明玻璃比较发黄。最好用捷克 透明玻璃。当订单的数量够大时童装表可以考虑用塑料芯片表镜。
Lugs表耳
Lugs are the projections / extensions on either side of the case to which the strap or bracelet is attached by pins / spring bars to the case.表耳是突出于表壳两侧的用来固定表带的部分，通常将表带用插脚或伸缩性生耳固定于表耳上。
Case Back
表底盖
The plate on the back of a watch where you can access the battery. On our analog watches, we use either polished case backs with etched markings or unpolished with stamped markings. For licensed and better watches, we normally use polished etched case back markings.从表底盖夹板处可以看到电池。我们的指针式电子手表底盖采用抛光蚀刻标记或无抛光冲压标记。有牌子的或比较好的手表上我们通常采用抛光蚀刻标记。
Watch cases are designed many different ways. Cheaper and vintage watches will usually have a "snap back." This is a watch where the back is held in place by pressing it on until it "snaps" into place. This offers the movement little to no protection from outside contaminants. A "screw back" is a back with finely cut threads. It then is screwed into the watch case. It usually has a gasket ring that also helps to seal out dust, dirt and water.
有很多不同的方式设计表壳。比较便宜的和旧款的表常用压入式底盖，底盖压下去后听到“啪”的一声底盖就装好了。这种底盖对机芯外面的污染没有阻挡功能。旋入式底盖，表壳后盖有很细的螺纹，可以旋转安装在表壳上，通常有防水胶圈。螺纹锁紧表壳以确保其防尘，防污和防水。
On our analog watches, please indicate the position of the lip with an arrow pointing to it. This is the grove where the user can insert a tool to open the case back. 在指针式电子手表的底盖唇上请做箭头标注开表口，用于让使用者可以在此处用工具打开底盖。
Crystal表镜
The crystal or lens is the transparent glass or plastic cover protecting the dial or “face” of the watch, hands, and/or digital display. It protects the dial and movement from dust and moisture.表镜/表玻璃的材料是透明玻璃或塑胶的，用于保护表面，指针和/或数字显示。它可以保护表面和机芯防尘，防潮。
Crystals & Lenses on Watches表镜上的水晶和镜片
A watch crystal is a transparent cover that protects the watch face. Watch crystals are available in plastic, Mineral, Sapphire and various synthetic materials. 表镜是透明的，用于保护表面。表镜的材料有塑料，矿石，蓝宝石，和一些不同的合成物
Note that, coincidently, the word "crystal" is also used to denote the tiny piece of quartz that serves as an oscillator in a quartz watch. These two types of crystals have nothing to do with each other. In Quartz Watches the term "quartz crystal" is used to prevent confusion. 注：很是巧合，水晶一词也用于石英表上表明震荡器的石英。这两种水晶是完全不同的东西。石英表上通常用“石英水晶”来区分表镜水晶。
Types of Crystals水晶的种类
Material Composition
水晶材料的合成物
Crystals can be made of any of three materials: 水晶可以有以下3种材料的任一种。
1- Plexi-glass (a clear, lightweight type of plastic).有机玻璃（透明，重量轻的塑料）
Plexi-glass, as you would expect, is the least expensive. It is also the least likely to shatter and the most likely to become scratched. Mineral glass, even though it has been hardened by a tempering process, is more likely to break than Plexi-glass. But it is also more scratch-resistant than that material. Synthetic sapphire is the most expensive glass crystal material and the most scratch resistant. Because it is so hard, it is also brittle, and shatters more easily than mineral glass or Plexi-glass.
有机玻璃，如我们所愿，是最便宜的，也最不容易打碎，但也是最容易刮伤的。矿物玻璃，尽管是经过高温形成使之加硬，但还是比有机玻璃易碎，不过比有机玻璃耐刮。合成的蓝宝石是表镜材料里最贵的，也是最抗刮伤的，因为它非常坚硬，但是比矿物玻璃和有机玻璃易碎。
2- Ordinary glass - like that used for windows, and usually referred to in the watch business as "mineral glass".  Mineral crystals offer up a good combination of clarity, strength and resistance to scratching. Sapphire crystal is a very hard transparent material commonly used for "scratch-proof" watch glass.
普通玻璃--如用于窗口上的玻璃，通常在表界被称为矿物玻璃。矿物水晶的透明度非常好，抗划伤力强。蓝宝石水晶材料透明，质地很硬，一般用于防划"scratch-proof"表镜上。
3- Synthetic sapphire. Some crystals are made of both mineral and sapphire glass. Seiko, for example, makes some watches with crystals made of mineral glass covered with a layer of synthetic sapphire. Seiko calls this composite material "Sapphlex". 合成蓝宝石。有些表镜是由矿物和蓝宝石合成的玻璃。如日本精工表，有的表镜是由矿物玻璃上覆上一层合成蓝宝石造成的。精工管这种合成材料叫做"Sapphlex".
Synthetic sapphire is a very hard, transparent material made of crystallizing aluminum oxide at very high temperatures. Chemically, synthetic sapphire is the same as the natural sapphire used in jewelry, but without the coloring agents that give the gemstone its various hues. When it is heated, the synthetic sapphire forms round masses that are sliced into pieces with diamond-coated saws. These disks are then ground and polished into watch crystals. (One reason sapphire crystals are relatively expensive is that the tools required to make them are costly.)
合成蓝宝石硬度很高，由氧化铝晶体经过高温造成的透明材料。从化学的角度讲合成蓝宝石和自然的珠宝类蓝宝石是相同的，只是没有宝石拥有的多种颜。当加热时，合成蓝宝石形成圆块，用镶有钻石锯子锯成片，然后研磨抛光成表镜。（蓝宝石水晶比较贵的一个原因就是制作蓝宝石表镜的工具比较贵）。
Sapphire (whether natural or synthetic) is one of the hardest substances on earth. It measures 9 on the Mohs scale, which is a system for rating the relative hardness of various materials. (Diamond measures 10, the highest rating.) Watch crystals made of synthetic sapphire are often marketed as "scratch resistant", meaning they are very difficult - but not impossible - to scratch. Diamonds can scratch them; so can man-made materials that incorporate silicon carbide, with, with a Mohs rating of between 9 and 10, is, like diamond, harder than sapphire. These materials are sometimes used to make simulated-stone surfaces for furniture or walls. The watch wearer should note that accidentally scraping a sapphire crystal against such a surface could cause a scratch.蓝宝石（无论自然的还是合成的）是地球上最坚硬的物质之一。它的莫式硬度等级是9。莫式硬度标是用来评价不同材料硬度等级的系统标准。（钻石的硬度等级是10，是最高的硬度等级）。合成蓝宝石表镜经常标上“防划”，意思是它很难划伤，但不是不可能划伤。钻石就可以划伤它；人造材料的碳化硅合成物达到9或10莫式等级就同钻石一样，比蓝宝石还要硬。此材料有时用于做家私或墙上仿钻的表面材料。佩戴蓝宝石表镜者应该注意此材料也会意外划伤的。
"Anti-reflective" or
"glare-resistant" crystals防眩水晶
The crystals have been coated on one or both sides with a substance - the same one used on anti-reflective eyeglasses - that lessens reflections and glare and makes it easier to read the watch face. Anti-reflective crystals can be made of either mineral glass or synthetic sapphire。有的手表会在蓝宝石表玻璃表面镀膜，有的甚至在玻璃的里外两侧全都镀膜，起到防止反光和增加透射率的作用，这个和眼镜片以及照相机镜头是一样的。防眩水晶可以是矿物玻璃的或合成蓝宝石的。
One interesting feature of these crystals is that, viewed from the front, they are virtually invisible because they aren't reflecting any light. In some instances, the coating gives the crystal a telltale bluish tint, as it does on eyeglasses. This tint is easiest to see if the watch has a light-colored dial.防眩水晶的一个有趣的特性是从前面看几乎看不到, 因为它不反光。有的表镜会在表面涂一层蓝调以引起注意，就如太阳镜。如果表面是浅的通过此调最容易看清楚。
Please specify material going forward on all production sheets (plastic /acrylic crystal, mineral crystal, sapphire crystal)
Please specify shape on all production sheets going forward – for example – flat, curved, domed, faceted, beveled, and wall-to-wall. 请在生产单上详细标明所用材料（塑料/丙烯酸 水晶，矿物水晶，蓝宝石水晶）；并标明形状，如：平、曲面、球状、有小面、斜面、直面。
Hands表针
Indicator, usually made of a thin, light piece of metal, normally made of brass (rhodium-plated, gilded or treated otherwise), but also steel or gold, which moves over a graduated dial or scale. Watches usually have three hands showing the hours, minutes and seconds. The shape and color of all should be indicated on spec sheets and production sheets (for example – silver sword hour & minute hands). 指示器-表针常用比较轻薄的金属如黄铜(镀铑，镀金或其他的处理方式)，但是也有钢的或金的,指针围绕刻度旋转。通常手表有3个指针,分别是时针，分针和秒针。在生产单上一定要标明指针的形状和颜如（银宝剑式时针和分针）
Hands (or hour markers) with “Glow in the dark” accents
在黑暗中发光的的表针（或时符）
The correct terminology to use for the glow in the dark hands is “luminous”.  LUMINESCENT or LUMINOUS is said of materials applied on markers (s.) and/or hands (s.), emitting the luminous energy previously absorbed as electromagnetic light rays. 指针在黑暗中发光的术语叫做发光体。此发光材料用于时符上，和/或表针上，荧光的电能是来自吸收的电磁光.
There is luminous paint in the market with varying degrees of life of glow-paint. Hands used to be treated with tritium. In order for timepieces to be read in the dark, a radioluminescent material was laid on the dial indexes and hands. According to ISO 3157 Standard, only the use of the following radionuclides is authorized for timepieces: tritium (3H) and promethium (147Pm). 市场上也有在时符上涂不同程度荧光粉的,表针经过氚处理.为了在黑暗中可以看到时间,有的在表时符上和指针上涂有辐射发光材料.根据ISO3157标准,只有以下几种放射性核素是允许用于表上的:氚(3H)和钷(147pm).
It is important to specify that these radionuclides emit a radiation of low energy, perfectly confined by the watch case and glass; they may under no circumstances threaten the health of the watch user. Tritium is no longer widely used and was replaced by other substances having the same emitting powers, but with virtually zero radioactivity, such as Super-LumiNova and Lumibrite (s). 很重要的一点要标明这种放射线核素是低能量的，可以被表壳和表玻璃阻挡住；完全不会影响使用者身体健康。 现在人们不再广泛的用氚材料了，取而代之的是其它的发光材料，具有相同的光能，但是几乎是零放射性，如超级夜光涂漆(Super-LumiNova and Lumibrite (s)。
There is green luminous & white color luminous material. The most common is green. On production sheets, please indicate either “genuine green luminous” or “genuine white luminous” if you want it to glow in the dark. Some vendors will use only luminous color paint so we need to specify “genuine”.有绿夜光和白夜光。最常用的是绿夜光。如果你要求它在黑暗处发光请在生产单上标明“genuine green luminous” or “genuine white luminous”。因为有些供应商只是用发光颜漆在时符上，所以我们要特别标明是“真正的”夜光材料。
Dial表盘
The dial or face of the watch is what the time is displayed on. Please indicate type of dial surface on all production sheets Sunray, glossy print, vertical brush, sandblast, with outer CD or printed zone, MOP (mother-of-pearl), faux-MOP, luminous, abalone, waffle textured, wavy textured, carbon fiber, etc.表盘/或表面是显示时间的地方。请在生产单上标明表盘的类型，太阳纹，光泽印刷，直砂，喷砂，外CD或印刷区域， 珍珠母， 仿珍珠母，夜光，鲍鱼纹，华夫织纹，波浪纹，碳纤维纹，等等。     
Dial Markers
表盘时符
Please indicate the type of dial markers – for example – printed, embossed, applied, ND labeling, thick printed genuine luminous, etc. Please indicate whether Arabic or Roman numerals are to be used, or indices, dots, or a combination of these. It is best to give some indication of the font when using Arabic numbers (for example – “Script Arabic numbers” or “Block Arabic numbers” If printed a color with black or other outline – be specific and indicate such – for example – PMS 286C red with black outline. Also, printed luminous numbers often look better with a black outline on watches – if this is the design – please indicate the outline (black or silver or gold) on the production sheet. You should indicate other markings such as “diamond cut inner circle”, for example.请在生产单上标明表盘时符加工类型—例如—印刷，浮雕效果，镶贴，ND唛头，浓印真夜光，等等。并要标明是用阿拉伯数字还是罗马数字，或是刻度，点，或综合的。当用阿拉伯数字时要标明字体（例如—“阿拉伯手写体”或“阿拉伯粗体”。如果字体黑或其它颜外框—标明—如PMS286C 红字，黑外框。如果有设计要求，字体是黑的外轮廓时，刷上发光材料会看上去比较好些，或标明字体的外轮廓是黑，或银或金。如果有其它要求也要列出，如：钻石用内圆刀片切割。
Types of dial markers
表盘时符的类型
Applied粘贴型– separate pieces of metal applied to the top of the dial plate-独立的金属零件帖在表盘上.
ND / labeling唛头 – metal-look sticker applied to the top of the dial – used for flat/wide & fancy numbers有金属外观的贴片帖在表盘上—用于平/宽 和花式数字上.
Embossed浮雕效果压花 – punched metal dial markers 冲压的金属表盘符.
Printed 印刷
Faux or genuine crystals仿/真水晶 – can be set in a bushing or glued on dial without bushing. 可以是有套衬安装或无套衬胶水粘
Applied luminous sport index给运动时符敷发光料。
Embossed / punched浮雕/压花 luminous sport indices夜光运动时符。
24 hour Markings on dial 24小时时符: World time and military time operates on a 24 hour measurement. After 12:00 noon you continue to add "1" hour. 1: is 13:00 or "13 hundred". Midnight is "24:00". The pilot has the traditional 12 hours dial and the 24 hour day markings.世界时间和军事时间是用24小时表示的。中午12点以后加上“1”个小时，1:00p.m 是13:00。午夜是"24:00"。 ETA 表有传统的12小时表盘和24小时时符。
Subdial
子表盘
A sub-dial, or subsidiary dial, is a small dial placed inside the main dial on a watch face. Watches can have as many as four of them. Sub-dials, also called auxiliary dials, give information not provided by the main watch dial. They are common features of multifunction watches such as chronographs, alarm watches, dual-time-zone watches and calendar watches.子表盘/副表盘或子表盘是装在表面里的小表盘，可以安装多达4个小表盘。子表盘/副表盘提供主表盘没有的时符。这是多功能表的共同特征，如计时表，闹表，双时区表和日历表。
Small second
小秒针
A time display in which the second hand is placed in a small sub-dial. Inner tension rings on case or dial. If there is an inner ring on a watch, design, please indicate on the production sheet whether it is a part of the dial or the case. Please detail any printing on inner rings as well.小秒针是装置在小表盘上的。内影圈在表壳上或表面上。如果表上设计有内影圈，请在生产单上表明是表盘的一部分或是表壳的一部分。并将印刷的细节和内影圈的细节标明。
Window
视窗
Is an aperture in the dial that allows reading the underlying indication, mainly the date, but also indications concerning a second zones time or jumping hour (s.). 孔径/视窗-在表的面盘上所开的孔称为视窗，主要用于显示日期，但是也可以显示第二时区的时间或跳时。
Tachometer
流速计
Instrument for measuring speed. In watch making, a timer or chronograph with a graduated dial on which speed can be read off in kilometers per hour or some other unit (see timer). 流速计是用来记录速度的。计时计或秒表是有刻度的，这样就可以算出每小时多数公里的速度。
