Water Resistance

Depth 50 meters - 165 feet

One thing that’s important with any watch is that water resistance and heat resistance are really two different things.

We never recommend wearing a watch in warm or hot water — showers, hot tubs, saunas, etc. — regardless of its water-resistance rating. This applies to our watches just as it does to a high-end dive watch from Rolex or any other manufacturer.

The issue is the heat. Watches rely on rubber gaskets and seals around the crown, caseback and crystal to maintain water resistance. Repeated heating and cooling causes those materials to expand and contract, which can accelerate deterioration of the seals and eventually allow moisture into the case. Soap, shampoo and other chemicals can also be hard on those seals.

A watch designed for deep diving may withstand tremendous water pressure, but that doesn't make hot water a good environment for its gaskets. Cold or room-temperature water and hot water put very different stresses on the seals.

For that reason, our recommendation with any watch is simple: swimming in appropriate conditions is one thing, but take the watch off before a hot shower, bath, hot tub or sauna. It’s an easy way to protect the seals and keep the watch water resistant for as long as possible.
