Suppose you are someone who, for the majority of the time, remains underwater, then you cannot go without a waterproof watches for women. However, it is said that no watch is actually completely waterproof. What it signifies is that it won’t leak under difficult circumstances.

Hence, the term ‘water resistant’ might not always sound appealing, but it’s a very important criterion for buying a wristwatch because resistance refers to the endurance of the Wrist watch that can withstand water pressure up to a certain level. And it is determined with the unit ATM (atmosphere) within the horology industry.

Gone are those days when rain was the biggest enemy of your wristwatch, as it wasn’t made to even resist the splashes of water or rain. These days, even the basic watches are made water resistant so that it can withstand the splashes of water and rain.

Understanding Your Water Resistant Watch

Now that you know that the water resistance feature is a very important point when it comes to purchasing a good quality wristwatch, you should also know that there are various water resistance ratings. So, before purchasing, know in detail about these ratings so that you can purchase the correct one according to your requirements.

The water protection of a watch is explained with the help of a rating system that is called ATM, or atmospheric pressure. This is basically the equivalent depth meter of the water which the watch can withstand.

However, please know it very carefully, this water resistance feature is not a permanent feature as it wears out in time because the seals dry up or harden or become brittle over time.

Even you would be surprised to know that heat also affects the water resistance of the wristwatch. Though a watch might be mentioned completely completely waterproof, you should not use it during a sauna or in a bathtub as the moisture will always settle inside. So it is advisable not to be exposed to extreme conditions.

Water Resistant Ratings:

No Marking: If there is no marking, then the watch is not water resistant at all. You should completely avoid it from water splashes or rain. Because if the watch gets wet, it would completely destroy the watch.

3 ATM/30 m: These watches are best for everyday usage as they can withstand minor splashes of water. So if it’s moderate rain, the watch will be protected. However, you should know that these watches should not be used while swimming or in heavy rain.

5 ATM/50m: These watches are also limited waterproof as they can be used in humid conditions and in a shower. It can withstand substantial splashes of water and a short period of swimming, but it would be better if you could avoid swimming.

10 ATM/100m: These watches can withstand heavy splashes, hence they can be used during swimming, snorkelling, and heavy rains. But you should not go diving with these watches.

20 ATM/200m: These watches are considered to be waterproof and can be used during scuba diving, but keep in mind these watches should not be used underwater there is the presence of mixed gases like helium.

30ATM/300m: These watches are used for serious underwater activities. These watches are absolutely safe to use during deep diving and also professional diving. So if you are someone who is involved in extensive underwater activities, then these watches are the ideal ones for you.
