Custom Watch Case Manufacturer and Supplier
We manufacture and supply watch cases in a wide range of materials, finishes, and water-resistance ratings. Each case is produced to meet strict quality standards and can be adapted to suit different design and performance needs.
Our material options include stainless steel 316L, titanium, carbon fiber, bronze alloys such as CuSn4 and CuSn8, tungsten carbide, Damascus steel, sterling silver 925, and precious metals including 9k, 14k, and 18k gold, as well as platinum 950.
Watch cases are available with multiple water-resistance levels, from basic splash protection to 100 ATM ratings suitable for professional diving watches.
Cases crafted from precious metals like gold or platinum are submitted to the Swiss Precious Metal Control for official hallmark certification. Each case is individually tested to confirm gold or platinum content before shipment.
Stainless Steel 316L-1.4435 Watch Case Manufacturer and Supplier
Many watch producers across Asia work with standard stainless steel 316L. FTM also offers stainless steel 316L-1.4435, a premium grade widely used by European luxury watchmakers.
Compared with regular 316L, grade 1.4435 provides higher hardness and improved resistance to corrosion due to its refined chemical composition. This makes it a strong option for watch cases designed for long-term wear and demanding conditions.
This material is produced using carefully selected raw metals and controlled melting techniques. The result is an extremely low inclusion rate, allowing for cleaner machining, smoother finishing, and consistent quality throughout the case.
Grade 5 Titanium Watch Case Material
Grade 5 titanium, also known as Ti-6Al-4V, is an alloy made from 6 percent aluminum and 4 percent vanadium, with tightly controlled limits on iron and oxygen content.
This grade offers greater strength than Grade 2 titanium while remaining lightweight. One major advantage of Grade 5 titanium is its ability to achieve a mirror-polished finish, making it suitable for both technical and premium watch designs.
Its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance make Grade 5 titanium a popular choice for high-performance and luxury watch cases.
Watch Case Back Manufacturer and Supplier
We produce watch case backs in a wide range of materials, constructions, and styles. Custom designs are fully supported to match your technical or visual requirements.
Water resistance options range from 3 ATM up to 100 ATM, with adjustments available based on specific project needs. Multiple surface finishes can be applied, including laser engraving, stamping, and embossed logos. Case back shapes include round, oval, rectangular, TV-style, and other custom profiles.
Available case back types include solid backs, groove-stamped designs, curved groove-stamped styles, welded backs, flat see-through versions with 2 to 6 viewing points, H-type structures, arch-shaped designs, drilled backs, and W-type grooved patterns.
Watch Case Blank Manufacturer and Supplier
We supply watch case blanks in stainless steel, titanium, brass, and aluminum. These blanks are produced for precision machining and advanced finishing processes.
Our stainless steel case blanks are suitable for further surface treatments such as plating. Due to their high material density, they remain free from visible pores or pinholes, even after sand polishing or mirror finishing.
A wide selection of standard case blanks is available, and custom specifications can also be produced to match your design requirements.
Questions buyers ask
What materials can you make watch cases in?
Stainless steel 316L and 316L-1.4435, Grade 5 titanium, carbon fiber, bronze (CuSn4, CuSn8), tungsten carbide, Damascus steel, sterling silver 925, 9k/14k/18k gold and platinum 950. Case blanks are available in stainless steel, titanium, brass and aluminum.
How water-resistant can the cases be?
From basic splash protection up to 100 ATM, suitable for professional diving watches. Case backs are available from 3 ATM up to 100 ATM.
Are gold and platinum cases hallmarked?
Yes. Cases in gold or platinum are submitted to the Swiss Precious Metal Control for official hallmark certification, and each case is individually tested for gold or platinum content before shipment.
What is the difference between 316L and 316L-1.4435 stainless steel?
Grade 1.4435 is the premium grade widely used by European luxury watchmakers. It has higher hardness, better corrosion resistance and an extremely low inclusion rate, so machining and finishing are cleaner.
Do you plate or finish the cases?
Yes. Examples on this page include PVD cases with 5 microns of gold plating and PVD with an 18K gold bezel. See our surface treatment options.
What is your minimum order quantity?
Generally 300 pieces, depending on the project.
Will my design stay confidential?
Yes. We sign NDAs on request.
Need more than the case?
We also make the rest of the watch. Add crystals and gaskets, crowns and pushers, dials, hands and bands and buckles, customise the movement, or have stones set with our diamond setting service. If you would like a finished product, see our complete watches service: we take your design from sketch to tested, packaged watch.
