Hola, iam Donna Rodriguez, Don’t work too hard.
Are The Rubies In Watches Real? [Solved]
In other words, when a watch is described as having a certain number of jewels, it’s referring to the synthetic rubies used in its movement. Basically, these rubies act as bearings and help reduce friction and wear on the watch’s inner workings. So, if you hear someone talking about a watch with 17 jewels, they’re really saying it has 17 synthetic ruby bearings! Pretty cool, huh?
