The watch industry has never really had an elegant way of protecting the original beauty of its painstakingly crafted cases and bracelets. Leaving them in the safe or wearing otherwise highly capable watches simply for “desk-diving” purposes have been some of the more popular ways of safeguarding treasured timekeepers. The STYX watch protection kit offers a bold, convenient, and dependable way to protect and enjoy your favorite watches without fear of damaging them by using a self-adhesive protection film, precision-cut to fit the most vulnerable case and bracelet components.

High-quality wristwatches have forever been designed to be cherished, worn, and maintained for a lifetime. In this quest, the watch industry has painstakingly refined its finishing techniques to delicately decorate stainless steel and gold and has dedicated tens of millions of Swiss francs to develop the use of a variety of novel materials such as titanium and ceramic, all in an effort to extend the longevity and durability of its watches. Nevertheless, so many of the world’s most popular watches are still sought after in their stainless steel or 18k gold guises, all in need of dependable yet discreet protection.

Each STYX protection kit in the brand’s catalog was created using 3D scanning technology, ensuring a seamless fit that’s free from jagged edges and misalignment. Made using a special anti-scratch polyurethane material derived from an abrasion-resistant yet pliable substrate, this barely-there clear film is extremely hard-wearing. Its elasticity gives the film a degree of self-healing, while a compact nano top coat minimizes the formation of scratches to maintain your watch’s pristine appearance. On the flip side of the film is a bonded adhesive that’s designed to be long-lasting, yet easy to remove. Applied on wet surfaces, these films have a degree of movability during the installation process, so you can easily maneuver each piece into its perfect place. Once the installation is complete, the adhesive will then dry to a semi-permanent bond that is strong enough to withstand everyday use and can still be removed without leaving any residue behind. All that is left is a pristine and original surface.

Despite the hitherto unknown peace of mind and robust protection it offers, the application of the STYX protection kit is a quick and largely unfussy process. In fact, you can do it in about 30 minutes, even if it is your very first attempt. Each STYX protection kit comes with a set of tweezers, a small microfiber towel, and an alcohol wipe — in other words, everything you need to give your watch a new, imperceptible outfit, minus some water (in a glass or a misting bottle). And because STYX understands better than most the importance of an insurance policy, it now offers the option of adding a full spare kit with every purchase. That way, you’ll always be ready to replace a piece of film or two, just in case the unexpected really does happen.

Since the brand’s inception in 2019, STYX has expanded its catalog of watch protection kits to include over 50 watch models from brands such as Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, Tudor, and more. While predominantly a watch protection brand, STYX is also applying its expertise in luxury goods to the preservation of accessories and handbags, with kits designed for the likes of Dior, Hermès, and Cartier.
