Why quartz watches are not as prestigious as some mechanical watches?
The most significant difference between a Swiss and a Japanese replica watch is the movement, while Swiss replicas come with an ETA movement the Japanese replicas come with a Miyota movement, similar to the movement found on Citizen and Seiko watches.
Swiss replica watches's price usually range from $400 to $600
Mens Japanese watches's price range between $180 to $300 depending on the functions they have. Ladies Japanese watches usually sell for $100 to $200.

yes, well the atoms which formed the beginning crystals began to form a sort of pinkish texture,which then leads to them being £2.00 in the currant climate.
How rapidly does Quartz vibrate?
Quartz vibrates when a voltage is applied between opposite faces of a crystal.
The frequency of the vibration depends on the thickness of the crystal, and on
the direction of the faces compared to the natural planes in the crystal structure.
What causes the different colors of quartz?
Trace amounts of other minerals in the crystalline structure of the SiO4.
Fluorescence occurs when a substance has absorbed light and later emits that light. Quartz is a material that undergoes this process. Minerals and creatures can both exhibit fluorescence.
What is the difference between celestite and rutilated quartz crystall ball?
The first actually refers to the mineral, celestine, strontium sulfate which gives off a delicate blue color in samples, particularly those coming from Madagascar. The second rutile, literally from the latin word rutilum meaning red, is a mineral composed primarily of titanium dioxide which may contain up to ten percent iron and significant trace elements of niobium and tantalum. Rutile has among the highest refractive indices of any known mineral and exhibits high dispersion. Rutile is found as an accessory mineral in some alterred igneous rocks, and in certain gneisses, and schists. When rutile is arranged in groups of acicular crystals it is frequently seen as penetrating quartz and can exhibit diasterism, meaning that when a light source illuminates a ball or cabochon from the back surface, you can visualize a point with a starburst pattern appearing along the surface of the ball. This starburst on the "sphere's" surface, sometimes contains as manyas six lines,most often equally spaced apart from one another which appear to wrap around the sphere only on the sphere's surface; however, if the sphere is translucent or transparent you can see this phenomenum in 3-D "through the sphere". This phenomenum in penetrating quartz is referred to as "fleches d'amour" in Grisons, Switzerland. For a visual yahoo "rutilated wiki" and choose the fourth option down or go to shopwiki.com.

What are the eight basic rock-forming minerals?
# Quarts # Feldspar # Mica # Pyroxine # Olivine # Amphibole # Calcite # Clay (eg Illite) # Garnet
"Shapeless" quartz is usually associated with tectonic movements and metamorphic rocks. In granites it is about the last mineral to crystallise and it fills the spaces between the micas and feldspars. In a crystalline form it forms long hexagonal (six sided) usually clear transparent crystals which are topped off with a hexagonal pyramid
Amethyst, rose, citrine, smoky, etc., are all examples of quartz. Few minerals come in such an amazing array of colors and crystal habits!
Quartz is a mineral- it does not grow. It is found in or near most places on earth.
Finding Ethically Sourced Quartz Countertops?
Very few people realize that quartz countertops are often the products of child labor in Nepal and unsafe/illegal working environments, much like other goods in our market today. There are alternatives to unethically-sourced quartz, and they can be found with just a few simple questions. One way to tell that your quartz countertops are ethically sourced is the price-- if the price is dirt cheap, it's probably for a reason. Search for online keywords like "locally sourced", or simply ask the company where, specifically, it gets its quartz from.
Tanzanite quartz, according to Crystal Age.com, is an artificially created stone that reflects intense energy. Tanzanite aura quartz is made from quartz that has went through a special process. In this process, indium, gold or niobium is used to bind with the quartz and the resulting crystals exhibit a tanzanite appearance.
How does smoky quartz form from quartz?
during heat prusure and time it changers from quartz to smoky quartz
Where do you get a quartz crystal appraised?
A formal appraisal could be made by a gemologist, or a respected mineral dealer. You could also see items of a similar nature for sale on ebay, and somewhat determine from that the value of your specimen.
