What Water Resistance Ratings Mean
Water resistance ratings are a guide, not a promise for every activity. As a general rule:
Water resistant / 30m (3 bar)
Splashes and rain. Not for swimming.
50m (5 bar)
Light water use such as washing hands. Usually not for swimming.
100m (10 bar)
Generally suitable for swimming.
200m and dive watches
Made for swimming and water sports. Dive watches are built for diving.
Always check your watch manual, as each brand gives its own guidance.
Why Water Resistance Fades
Seals age
The rubber seals in a watch slowly wear out and lose their grip.
Opening the case
A battery change or repair opens the case and disturbs the seals.
Heat and steam
Hot showers, saunas and steam rooms are hard on seals.
Knocks and drops
A hard knock can shift the crystal or case back.
Crown left open
On screw-down crowns, the crown must be fully closed before the watch touches water.
Protecting Your Watch From Water
Push in or screw down the crown before touching water, avoid pressing buttons under water, rinse the watch with fresh water after the sea or pool, and keep it away from hot water and steam.
If you see fog or moisture under the glass, stop wearing the watch near water and get it checked quickly, as moisture can damage the movement.
