Be aware that while DLC has many industrial applications, finicky watch makers demand only the highest grade materials and processes.DLC stands for “Diamond Like Carbon.” Which is a bit confusing, as so many things are made from carbon, including diamonds. The idea is simple, diamonds are extremely dense in terms of their carbonic make up, and so is DLC. However diamonds have a crystalline atomic make up, where as DLC is more hexagonal in shape and formation; think of something that look likes. DLC shares a lot of diamond p
