− Peak pressures may occur when swimming or when exposed to a water
jet (e.g. when showering or washing your hands). During such activities,
affected areas may be subjected to a significantly greater pressure than ex-
pected for the immersion depth. Only watches with a classification of 5 bar
or more can be considered watertight (showering allowed). Watches with a
classification of 10 bar can also be used when swimming.
− Watertightness is not a permanent property as the function of the built-in
sealing elements may diminish with daily use or be damaged by an impact
or fall.
− If a watch is subjected to substantial changes in temperature such as when
sun-bathing followed by a dip in cool water, liquid may condense in the
