All PV watches have a water resistance of 5 ATM. 5 ATM means that a watch can withstand a pressure of 5 bar or a water column of 50 meters. In practice, this corresponds to the pressure of a flowing water jet when washing hands.
Using the attached table, you can determine how much water load your watch can withstand (orange colored is norm for all PV watches):
water depth | rain, splashes | showering | bathing |
swim / snorkeling |
diving without equipment | diving with equipment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
30 meter = 3 bar | Yes | No | No | No | No | No |
50 meter = 5 bar | Yes | No | No | No | No | No |
100 meter = 10 bar | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | No |
200 meter = 20 bar | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Yes |
