How it works

Weight → Karat → Calculate. The math is always shown.

  1. Enter the weight in grams
  2. Tap the karat — 24K to 9K or custom
  3. Confirm your own spot price and payout
  4. Read the estimate with every step explained

Example: 10 g of 18K gold

Pure gold10.00 g × 75.0 %7.500 g
Gross value7.500 g × $100.00$750.00
After payout$750.00 × 85 %$637.50
Deductionfixed amount−$10.00
Estimated value$637.50 − $10.00$627.50

Spot price is user-provided. KaratMaster never downloads or guesses market prices.

Right from your wrist.

Turn the Digital Crown to set the weight in 0.01 g steps, turn again to pick the karat, confirm the synced spot price — done. Subtle haptics confirm each step, and the watch keeps your last synced prices when your iPhone is out of reach.

Questions

Does KaratMaster show live gold prices?

No. You enter the spot price yourself, and KaratMaster shows when you last changed it. This keeps every calculation offline and transparent.

Which karats are supported?

24K (1000), 22K (916.7), 21K (875), 18K (750), 14K (585), 10K (417) and 9K (375) — plus any custom fineness or karat.

What counts as a free calculation?

Only a valid calculation that produces a result. Opening the app, editing fields or invalid input never count. The third result is fully shown and can be saved before the purchase screen appears.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. The calculation engine, history, widgets and Apple Watch app all work offline.

Is this financial advice?

No. KaratMaster is a calculation tool. Values are estimates based on the prices and settings you enter; actual purchase, refining and market prices may differ.
