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.
