PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a timepiece component which can secure corrosion resistance and is marked for identification notation and design expression. SOLUTION: A watch component is formed between a base composed of a ferrite phase, a surface layer composed of an austenitic phase, and the base portion and the surface layer, and the ferrite phase and the austenitic phase. It is composed of an austenitic ferrite-based stainless steel comprising a mixed layer in which is mixed, and a recess is formed in the surface layer, and the distance from the surface of the surface layer to the bottom surface of the recess is the distance from the surface to the mixed layer. Shorter than the distance to. [Selection diagram] Fig. 3
