The water-resistance of Fromanteel watches is stated in ATM (at-

mosphere) instead of in meters. 1 ATM stands for a unit of pressure 

equal to the air pressure at sea level (or 14.72 pounds of weight per 

square inch). Meters, which are often used elsewhere in the watch 

industry to indicate water-resistance, cannot be equated with dive 

depth because of the test procedures that are frequently used.

Water-resistance shown in meters provides no indication as to actu-

al use of the watch in the presence of moisture and wetness, and in 

or under water. As body movement caused by swimming or strong 

water current can also influence the increase in pressure. Depth al-

one would be inaccurate to address the water-resistance of your 

watch. All Fromanteel watches are made to resist 5 ATM (or more, 

if differently indicated). 

To ensure that your watch continues to function correctly, you

should have it checked by a Fromanteel Service Centre at least 

once every two years. Your watch should also be tested after ex-

posure to unusually harsh conditions. If the tests are not carried out 

as stipulated, or if the watch is opened by an unauthorized third 

party, Fromanteel will accept no warranty or liability claims.
