Is Your Watch Water Resistant?

You must not think that a wristwatch with marking "waterproof"is designed for swimming or even diving. Actually some waterproof timepieces can be used for swimming, while other watches not. With a water-resistant watch on your wrist you should not worry if it contacts with water, however, you must remove such a wristwatch before taking a bath, because very few watches are really water-resistant. Before getting a waterproof wristwatch you ought to find out what the markings on the watch mean. Never swim or dive with a watch that features the marking "waterproof" 3 ATM (30 m)". There are timepieces with higher water resistance - to 50m, you should remove such a timepiece if you want to dive, but such a timepiece will withstand swimming. The best timepieces are those with water resistance to 10ATM (100 m), such watches are nice for diving. It is really sad, but replica timepieces that enjoy so great popularity, are not highly water-resistant. Only genuine timepieces, can be used for diving, so a Rolex Two-tone reproduction timepiece is not the nicest choice for a diver. A replica Rolex wristwatch is only a copy of a genuine Rolex watch, but it doesn't have all the features of the original Rolex wristwatches. It is important to remember, that both fake wristwatches and original timepieces cannot be accepted for refund if being damaged by water.
