GERMANISCHER LLOYD CERTIFIES
SINN DIVER’S WATCHES
What does Germanischer Lloyd have to do with a watch manufacturer from
Frankfurt am Main? The reputable institute examines and certifies our diver’s
watches — according to various criteria. One testing process focuses on water
and pressure resistance while a second centers on something that has not
yet been seen in the watch industry: certification according to the European
diving equipment norm!
Water and Pressure Resistance Testing
The background: the factor of time plays an important role in survival on every
dive. For this reason, diver’s watches must be water-resistant, reliable, robust, and
guarantee perfect legibility under all light and water conditions. Additionally: for
us, this certification is a natural extension of keeping our quality promise. What
we tell customers about our watches is not just lip service, we prove it by putting
it into action. Germanischer Lloyd has been testing our diver’s watches for water
and pressure resistance already since 2005. According to these certification
norms, Model U1000 and U1 are pressure-proof to 100 bar, Model U2 to 200
bar, and Model UX is even pressure-resistant to any reachable diving depth.
Germanischer Lloyd confirms the pressure security of this model to 12,000 meters
and the movement to 5,000 meters of diving depth. The test is repeated in
regular intervals on all of these model series in order to continue documenting
their consistent quality.
