The Durability of the Mineral Crystal in the Alba Active Watch

AS9V91X1

An active lifestyle never stops and your watch should keep up too. Whether you’re busy at work, spending time outside or squeezing in a workout, your watch faces daily wear and tear.

That’s why durability is more than just a feature; it’s something you really need.

The crystal, which is the clear layer that covers the dial, is one of the most important parts of a watch. In the Alba Active collection, mineral crystal glass offers a reliable scratch resistance and stays clear as time goes on.

The goal isn’t to be completely scratch proof, but to be tough enough for everyday life. Whether it’s an accidental bump or daily friction, mineral crystal helps your watch stay clean and easy to read without needing special care.
