The seals are the important factor in guaranteeing the waterproofness of a watch. These age
naturally and are also affected by perspiration and acids. The level of waterproofness is given in ATM
(atmosphere) and noted on the case back of the watch.
Watches are considered water resistant if they are resistant against sweat, water droplets, rain etc.
They have to remain watertight for a period of 30 minutes when submerged in 1 m of water. These
watches are for normal everyday use and are not suitable for use in conditions where the water
pressure and temperature vary considerably.
