The reason for the Chinese name of Apache. Apache is an American armed helicopter. According to foreign military flight tests, the "Apache"'s airborne avionics equipment and other technologies are excellent. Judging from actual combat experience, "Apache" has made outstanding achievements. These are enough to show that the "Apache" is one of the most technologically advanced and most powerful armed helicopters in the world today. A fighter known as the "Invincible of the East".
Therefore, Xinxin Jingcheng Watch Co., Ltd. named its trademark "Apaqi" after the fighter of "Invincible East". In order to show the difference, the word "Qi" in "Apache" was changed to the homophone "Qi". Apache Brand Company Profile: Xinxin Jingcheng Watch Industry was founded in 1993, specializing in the design and production of various types of mid-to-high-end watches, with more than ten years of manufacturing experience. Senior technicians and creative designers can launch 10 new products every month.
Xinxin Jingcheng Watch Industry implements strict quality control, selects high-quality materials, Swiss and Japanese movements, strictly QCs each component before assembly, and all undergoes 100 water tests with imported water testers before leaving the factory. The factory has established a good reputation among customers in Europe, America, Asia, the Middle East, Hong Kong and mainland China.
Xinxin Jingcheng Watch Factory has a factory area of ??more than 8,000 square meters and a monthly output of more than 400,000 pieces. It has three major brands: IKcolouring, XXCOM and S2SQURE. There are various designs such as exquisite fashion, simple style, colorful sun, moon and stars, high-end personality, top tourbillon, etc., with more than 2,000 styles and colors. Development history of Apache: Apache founder Guo Suzhen got involved in the watch business when she was young. She started out as a watch wholesale and retail business. Her long-term exposure to the watch industry gave her a better understanding of the watch industry, and she came up with the idea of ??starting her own watch company.
In 1993, she founded her own company, called "Xinxin Jingcheng Watch Co., Ltd.". It is a company mainly responsible for selling watches, but she also develops homemade watches. Gradually, she switched from selling watches to selling watches. In order to develop a watch company, the "IK coloring" trademark was registered in Hong Kong that year. Since 1995, the scale has gradually expanded, and the workshop has been divided into two major departments, namely the watch department and the shell department. Responsible for watch body design, surface design, watch case, watch glass processing, etc. The watch department is mainly responsible for watch assembly and shipment. At the same time, it also sets up corresponding maintenance, QC inspection, and packaging workshops.
With Xinxin. With the accelerated development of Jingcheng Watch Co., Ltd., Apache brand watches have also developed rapidly. They have developed from a single style to a variety of styles and colors, and are deeply loved by various people. There are various hollow ones, calendar ones, trendy ones, etc., which also confirm the brand trademark design concept of "IK Coloring" in various colors. (1) Positioning and classification of Apache series watches
① IK Apache high-end quartz watch; ② IK Apache mid-to-high-end mechanical watch
(2) IK coloring Apache watch variety classification
① IK coloring Apache. Qi quartz three-hand watch.
Apaqi quartz three-hand watch is distinguished by hands. Unlike the six-hand watch, it only has three hands: seconds, minutes and hours.

The Apache Quartz Calendar is an extension of the Apache Thirty-Hand, adding a calendar card to the three-hand watch. , indicating the calendar. The calendar handle usually has two gears. Pull out the first gear to adjust the calendar, and pull out the second gear to adjust the time. The Apache quartz calendar watch is also a simple style watch. p>③ IK coloring Apache mechanical watch.
A. Apache mechanical watch can also be divided into two categories according to the winding function: manual winding mechanical watch and automatic mechanical watch. Watches can be divided into two types: manual winding and non-manual winding.
B. Apache mechanical watches can be divided into multi-functional mechanical watches, three-hand mechanical watches and calendar mechanical watches according to watch functions. surface.
Among them, the multi-functional mechanical watches have different styles and colors, and the small hands have corresponding functions, including calendar, day of the week, 24-hour indication, tourbillon, seconds, minutes and other functions.

Apaqi quartz multi-function watches are available in different styles and colors, and the small hands have corresponding functions, including calendar, day of the week, 24-hour indication, seconds, minutes and other functions.
(3) Waterproof performance classification of Apache watches
1ATM (waterproof to 10 meters at rest), also known as daily waterproof;
3ATM (waterproof at rest) 30 meters waterproof) The AH-64 Apache is the only helicopter used by the U.S. Army specifically for attack since the retirement of the AH-1. Its modification is named the AH-64D Longbow Apache, which is still the A powerful weapon in the U.S. Regular Army, National Guard and Reserves.
The Boeing AH-64 Apache is a four-blade propeller, twin-engine attack helicopter equipped with a tailwheel landing device and a tandem cabin that can accommodate two crew members.
The Apache was developed by Hughes for the U.S. Army's Advanced Attack Helicopter Program to replace the AH-1 "Cobra". Its variant is named AH-64D Longbow Apache.
The Apache is the main battle attack helicopter of the US Army. It is also exported to Greece, Japan, Israel, the Netherlands and Singapore as the country's main battle attack helicopter and is produced under license in the UK as the WAH-64 model. After the AH-56 "Cheyenne" program was canceled, the U.S. Army was allowed to launch a replacement program for the AH-56. This program is the so-called "Advanced Attack Helicopter." The Advanced Attack Helicopter program is designed to provide the Army with an all-weather, all-purpose attack helicopter that can be used against enemy armor and other hardened targets.
The Army selected two major defense contracting companies to participate in this program, one is Bell Helicopter Company's YAH-63, and the other is Hughes Company's YAH-64.
In September and November 1975, two YAH-64 test flight prototypes developed by Hughes Company conducted their first test flights respectively. At the same time, a ground test aircraft also completed its test mission.
Starting in May 1976, the two prototypes conducted comparative test flights. The U.S. Army believed that the model designed by Hughes Helicopter Company was superior in flight performance, cockpit configuration and system integration, and finally officially announced Hughes YAH-64 program won.
Later Hughes Helicopter Company merged with McDonnell Douglas, and McDonnell Douglas later merged with Boeing Company. It was officially named "Apache" in 1981 and approved by the Army for full-scale production in 1982. In January 1984, the first production AH-64A was officially delivered to the troops. The Apache first participated in the war in Panama in 1989. In the 1991 Gulf War and air strikes on Yugoslavia and the recent Iraq War, the Apache showed strong combat capabilities, targeting both soft and hard targets such as tanks and armored vehicles, as well as other vehicles and personnel. Has a strong impact.
AH-64 "Apache" is the second generation American armed helicopter. According to foreign military flight tests, the "Apache"'s airborne avionics and other technologies are superior to the Russian Ka-50.
Judging from actual combat experience, "Apache" has made outstanding achievements. For example, in the Gulf War, a US military helicopter gunship battalion destroyed 84 Iraqi tanks, 4 air defense systems, 8 artillery pieces, and 38 wheeled vehicles in one battle. These are enough to show that the AH-64 "Apache" is one of the most technologically advanced and most powerful armed helicopters in the world today.
Apache fired the first shot in the Gulf War. In the early morning of January 17, 1991, 22 minutes before the "Desert Storm" air strike, eight US military AH-64 armed helicopters skillfully evaded the Iraqi military radar network by flying at low altitude and entered southern Iraq covertly.
After discovering two important early warning radar stations of the Iraqi army, eight AH-64 helicopters divided into two groups and rushed towards the Iraqi early warning radar station.
The driver pressed the launch button, and "Hellfire" missiles sprayed orange-red flames and fell from the sky. The Iraqi early warning radar station flew into the sky amid continuous explosions. This opened a safe channel for multinational air strikes, allowing a large number of fighter-bombers to enter through the gap and suddenly appear over Baghdad. Operation "Desert Storm" began.
During the Gulf War, multinational forces deployed hundreds of armed helicopters, and the AH-64 "Apache" accounted for 274, which is about half of the total equipment of the US Army. It can be seen that it plays a decisive role.
On March 24, 2003, during the US military attack on Baghdad during the Iraq War, 32 AH-64 "Apache" helicopter gunships attacked the Iraqi Army and the National Guard "Mai" stationed in Karbala. The fierce attack launched by the "Dina" Division fired the first shot of the Battle of Baghdad! And destroyed 10 Iraqi tanks in a short period of time.
From June 3 to 4, 2011, the British and French troops used "Apache" and other armed helicopters for the first time to attack important strategic positions controlled by the Libyan government forces. However, the maintenance complexity of the AH-64 was exposed during the Gulf War. Due to the strong wind and sand in the Gulf area, the AH-64 must thoroughly clean its engines, rotors and weapons after almost every mission, otherwise it will cause malfunctions. And the phenomenon of plane crash.
During the bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, the United States simply canceled the AH-64 combat operation. Because Yugoslavia has a large number of shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles, the slower AH-64 helicopters have just become a living target for these missiles.
Later, in order to make up for some of the shortcomings of the Apache, the U.S. military developed the "Apache" series of longbows.
Structural features: (overall layout, materials, power, etc.) Overall layout 4-blade fully articulated rotor system, using steel belt laminated joint components and elastomer sway dampers. The tail rotor consists of two pairs of two-blade rotors mounted on the same fork joint. The fuselage is equipped with cantilevered small aspect ratio short wings, which are detachable, and there are 2 hanging points under the short wings on each side.
Rear tricycle wheel landing gear, the landing gear struts can be folded backwards, and the tail wheel is an omnidirectional steering and self-centering tail wheel.
