Mineral Crystal
A toughened glass made from silica that's heat- and scratch-resistant, offering clear visibility and solid everyday durability.
Mineral Glass
Enhanced durability
Mineral crystals use a similar material to windowpane glass and were developed for watches as a harder alternative to acrylic. Mineral crystals are still susceptible to scratches but less so than acrylic, however it is not possible to buff out these scratches as it is with acrylic. Mineral glass is not as shatter resistant as acrylic but does offer greater transparency and clarity. Due to their improved scratch resistance versus acrylic, and improved shatter resistance versus sapphire, mineral is often considered to be the best of both worlds as a crystal material.

Q&A
- I received the Timex Boyfriend Watch as a gift and noticed the Indiglo light is blue instead of the usual greenish-blue. Could you explain why?
- Hi Assenet! Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with the Timex Legacy Boyfriend 36mm. The Indiglo backlight can vary slightly in hue depending on the model and dial design, so it’s normal for some watches to appear more blue rather than the traditional greenish-blue. This variation is intentional and does not affect the performance of the Indiglo feature.
- Do you sell just the strap for this watch? Looking for something similar to swap the band out on the Timex x Dimepiece Intrepid 36mm Special Edition
- Hi Sam! Thanks so much for reaching out, and for your interest in customizing your Timex watches—love that creative spirit! While we don’t sell the strap for the Timex Legacy Boyfriend 36mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch separately, all our watches are sold as complete sets. That said, both the Legacy Boyfriend and the Timex x Dimepiece Intrepid 36mm Special Edition feature an 18mm lug width, which means you can absolutely swap in a compatible strap. We offer a wide range of high-quality 18mm watch straps that should fit beautifully and give your watch a fresh new look. Finding a replacement strap shouldn't be a hassle. Check out our selection here: https://timex.com/collections/watch-replacement-straps
- What is the difference between the Waterbury legacy watch and just the legacy watch? Also, can links be removed to adjust so it fits . Thanks
- Hello Dianne! Great question about the Timex Legacy styles. The Timex Legacy Boyfriend 36mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch is part of the Waterbury collection, a special line that highlights elevated design features like a fluted bezel, detailed craftsmanship, and the signature INDIGLO® backlight. In contrast, the Timex Legacy collection showcases versatile designs for everyday elegance. The classic Timex Legacy construction itself honors our rich heritage in traditional watchmaking—its timeless design meets modern functionality, blending past and present in every tick. And yes, you can absolutely remove links from the stainless steel bracelet to adjust the fit, thanks to its convenient foldover clasp.
- What is the warranty for the watch? Thank you
- Hi Janet! The Timex Legacy Boyfriend 36mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch is covered by a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects. If you need any repairs, feel free to reach out to us.
