your watch. while skin diving, but not while scuba or saturated diving using helium gas.
The following chart provides examples of use for reference to ensure that your watch is
used properly. (The unit "1bar" is roughly equal to 1 atmosphere.)
• WATER RESIST(ANT) ××bar may also be indicated as W.R.××bar.
• Non-water resistant models are not designed to come into contact with any moisture.
