The hand is the thin indicator that scans the watch face with information in terms of showing the hours. Usually, there are three hands found on a watch: the hour hand, the minute hand, and the second hand. It can be said that, like other watch components, hands are designed in various styles, typically ranging from smooth and minimalistic to elaborate and highly ornamented, often reflecting the overall design of the watch.
Many hands are also made of robust material, stainless steel, and sometimes, they are coated with luminescent, making it possible to read time during the night. Hands are probably the most obvious feature of a watch.
