The seals are the important factor in guaranteeing the waterproofness of a watch. These age
naturally and are also affected by perspiration and acids. The level of waterproofness is given in ATM
(atmosphere) and noted on the case back of the watch.
Watches are considered water resistant if they are resistant against sweat, water droplets, rain etc.
They have to remain watertight for a period of 30 minutes when submerged in 1 m of water. These
watches are for normal everyday use and are not suitable for use in conditions where the water
pressure and temperature vary considerably.
An additional specifi cation of pressure, such as "3 ATM", means the test conditions have been tighte-
ned. The specifi cation "3 ATM" is not to be confused with the diving depth; it is simply the defi nition of
the inspection pressure. An inspection pressure of 3 ATM is reached at a depth of 30 meters.
In some cases a short-term higher pressure than the guaranteed inspection pressure may be
enforced on the seals, for example when swimming or diving into water.
Watches are at particular risk when the wearer dives into water after sunbathing. The combination of
the impact pressure with the negative pressure caused by the sudden drop in temperature can quite
easily cause damage.
It is important to check and, if necessary, replace seals when the battery is replaced.
