Abstract
Provided is a watch glass including a support glass having at least one recess, a cover glass, at least one gemstone which is at least in part disposed in the recess, and a connecting intermediate layer by way of which the cover glass and the support glass are connected to one another. A region of an upper part of the gemstone is in direct contact with the intermediate layer.
Claims15
A watch glass comprising:
- a support glass having at least one recess;
- a cover glass;
- at least one gemstone that is at least in part disposed in the recess;
- and
- a connecting intermediate layer by way of which the cover glass and the support glass are connected to one another,
- wherein a region of an upper part of the gemstone is in direct contact with the intermediate layer, and
- wherein a region of the recess below a contact region between the gemstone and the recess has only air or a vacuum between the recess and the gemstone.
A method for producing a watch glass in which at least one gemstone is embedded, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a support glass;
- providing a cover glass;
- incorporating at least one recess in the support glass;
- providing at least one gemstone;
- inserting the gemstone into the recess of the support glass, wherein a region of the at least one recess below a contact region between the at least one gemstone and the at least one recess has only air or a vacuum between the at least one recess and the at least one gemstone;
- incorporating a connecting intermediate layer between the support glass and the cover glass;
- placing the cover glass onto the support glass;
- and
- connecting the cover glass to the support glass by way of the connecting intermediate layer in such a manner that a region of an upper part of the gemstone is in direct contact with the intermediate layer.
A method for producing a watch glass in which at least one gemstone is embedded, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a support glass;
- providing a cover glass;
- incorporating at least one recess in the support glass;
- providing at least one gemstone;
- inserting the gemstone into the recess of the support glass;
- incorporating a connecting intermediate layer between the support glass and the cover glass;
- placing the cover glass onto the support glass;
- and
- connecting the cover glass to the support glass by way of the connecting intermediate layer in such a manner that a region of an upper part of the gemstone is in direct contact with the intermediate layer,
- wherein for connecting the cover glass to the support glass the intermediate layer in a first step is heated in a first temperature range between a first temperature T1 and a second temperature T2 for a first duration t1, and in a second step is heated in a second temperature range between a third temperature T3 and a fourth temperature T4 for a second duration t2, wherein the third temperature T3 is higher than or equal to the second temperature T2, and the fourth temperature T4 is higher than the third temperature T3.
