Water Resistance Reminder

Water resistance ratings are a guide only and are based on laboratory testing under controlled conditions. In everyday use, sudden pressure changes, temperature shifts, soaps, impacts, and ageing seals can all affect your watch’s ability to resist water.

Indication Sweating Handwashing, Rain Shower, Bath, Swimming Diving, Snorkeling Deep Diving, Water Sports
Not Waterproof NO NO NO NO NO
3 ATM (30 m) YES NO NO NO NO
5 ATM (50 m) YES YES NO NO NO
10 ATM (100 m) YES YES YES NO NO
20 ATM (200 m) YES YES YES YES NO
+ 30 ATM (300 m) YES YES YES YES YES

Important Notes

Water resistance is not permanent and may reduce over time due to normal wear, ageing gaskets, accidental knocks, or exposure to chemicals such as soap, perfume, sunscreen, and cleaning products.

Hot water and steam can still affect seals over time, so extra care is always recommended even on higher-rated watches.

Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in, and if applicable, screwed down before any contact with water.
