Water resistance
A watch may be called water resistant if it is protected
against splashing water, sweat and rain and will survive
thirty minutes under one meter of water. These require-
ments are met by all watches with the indication «water
resistant» 3 ATM or higher. As the water pressure and
temperatures may vary while swimming or diving, these
watches are water resistant but may not be suitable for
such activities.
Only with a water resistance of 5 ATM or higher (for ex-
ample 5, 10 or 20 ATM) watches are resistant against
immersing and intense moves under water.
To be suitable for swimming, a watch needs a water
resistance of at least 5 ATM (50 meters).
The level of water resistance can change because of
aging, abrasion or damage. We recommend checking
the water resistance at your local jeweler yearly.
The
more and regularly a watch is maintained, the better is
its tightness.
We wish you much pleasure and satisfaction with your
EPOS watch.
