Dark. Durable. Distinctive.
At Hercules Watch Co., we harness the power of cutting-edge DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating technology, originally developed for military-grade resilience. Today, we use it to transform luxury watches into sleek, scratch-resistant masterpieces designed for everyday endurance and timeless appeal
Our DLC coating forms a molecular armour— 7 to 8 times harder than steel and up to 12 times tougher than gold. Engineered to withstand the elements and designed to elevate aesthetics, this is more than a coating—it’s a commitment to durability with an undeniably dark edge.
Where traditional finishes like PVD fall short, our DLC coatings excel. They’re entirely reversible, residue-free, and far more resilient. The result? A bold, exotic black finish with exceptional longevity and zero compromise on material integrity.
Not all DLC is created equal. At HWC, we’ve spent years refining our approach to achieve what we believe is the highest grade of DLC coating available. Each watch we treat merges endurance and elegance, engineered to last and designed to turn heads.
We don’t just coat timepieces—we redefine their identity. Our mission is to transform beautiful watches into striking, mysterious statements. Every piece becomes a mirror of its wearer: bold, timeless, and entirely one-of-a-kind.
Your investment deserves protection. Our comprehensive warranty covers materials, workmanship, and coating durability under normal use. As we operate our own in-house workshop, your custom piece comes with a guarantee that replaces the original manufacturer’s warranty —with craftsmanship you can count on.
