"You'll lose half in the divorce anyway".... and there it is my friends, tell your significant other that it's all cheap Chinese fakes, you'll thank me later.

[@Sheppards1984]

The thing with water resistance is it's never about the watch being crushed at 51 meters if it's only rated at 50. It's the gaskets at the crown, backplate or buttons if it has them. And even then it's not like you have to actually DIVE to 50 meters to experience 5 Bar water pressure. Just washing hands CAN compromise weaker gaskets, I googled standard tap water pressure in my country, Average is 3-4 BAR but you can find 5-6 Bar of water pressure coming out of your TAP at home. Riding a jetski, and falling off, hitting the water at xx MPH? Guess what that can be quite the pressure if it hits your watch at the right angle. Or getting hit by a 2 meter wave when in the sea swimming. Just a few examples

[@firstnamelastname-ys3mz]

5 bar is 40m depth. 4*1atm per 10 m plus 1atm at surface

You will break a 50 metre watch by swimming with it, in the pool...as the physical pressure you create by jumping in the pool, or even the action of swimming with it, could easily pop open the crown or pop the back off...or overload the water resistance.

[@valientdiscretion]

Pressure in water is not just the hydrostatic pressure, but when in motion, the dynamic pressure. Just like the Bernouli phenomenon that causes the flow of air over a wing to lift a jumbo; moving your arms in the water will subject your watch to pressure greater (and lesser) than the depth the watch is at. That's why there is an ISO standard for dive watches that seems overkill given the depths most recreational divers reach.

[@richardshaw1968]

Out of interest have you done the calculations to understand the velocity required to make this significant?

[@valientdiscretion]

It depends on the depth and the water, I’ll try and model it for salt water and 40 metres (normal limit for recreational diving) but I won’t be able to account for the shape of the watch. Give me a couple of days.

[@justinhendren540]

Always does amazing videos. Awesome sense of humor and spot on with his point of view

[@PhantomObserver]

About that 50m / 5ATM / 5BAR designation: The best way to define this is “casual swimming.” And what is “casual swimming”? Simple. People who don’t go to a swimming pool more than once a week, who usually stay in the shallow end to splash around with their kids, who don’t use the diving board, who dog paddle, who like to wade in the beach or just cool off. That’s the sort of folk who can wear a 5ATM-rated watch without worrying about it. OTOH: if you swim as a regular form of exercise, if you indulge in water polo or like to dive off the diving board more than once a week, then a watch with 10ATM is more up your speed. If you want to wear a watch in a hot tub / jacuzzi, then a G-Shock or an ISO-6425-rated dive watch is recommended because they’re known to withstand high water temperatures.

[@andrewallen9993]

Or a Vostok Komandirskie. As it's rated to 2 atmospheres it will tolerate all that swimming and hot water. You might have to change the strap though🤣

As the owner of a Speedy reduced for 20 years, believe me when I tell you I really felt that "local watchmaker runs for the hills when you tell them what you've got... and you still have to find the parts". The pain is real.

[@ianforber]

Same. When I smashed my white dial Speedy Reduced Omega said it was so old they had to send it back to Switzerland for repair and it would take 3 months. I needed a watch I decided to get one with a different colour dial so I bought a blue dial Planet Ocean. Then, after the watch came back, I decided I needed a watch without a numbered bezel, so I bought a blue dial Aqua Terra because I now love blue dials. Then I decided I needed a black dial watch so I bought a Rolex Explorer. If only I hadn’t smashed my Speedy…

[@mmdetoro]

@@ianforber Yeah, Omega service is something else... I sent them mine once, bezel had popped off. Took them 6 months to fix and send back, 6 months. To put a bezel back on. Not long after that, I sent it in for service, they wanted to charge me more than I had paid for the watch brand new, claimed I NEEDED to change the sapphire glass (in perfect condition) AND bracelet, told them I only wanted them to service the movement, they told me "i didn't get to choose what was serviced" that it had to either agree to everything or refuse the service entirely. So I sent it one more time, different Omega service center. They quoted me for half the amount of the first quote... didn't even mention the sapphire or bracelet. This only made me trust Omega service even less. Ever since that day, when I need it serviced, I just buy a movement on ebay and have a local watchmaker service it.

[@saphna2095]

would you mind keeping on listing the mentioned watches' names in the description?☺️

[@1061shrink1061]

The depth confusion comes from static vs mobile usage. A watch that is marked at 50m is rated for a static 50m of pressure. But if you swim with it, the pressure on the watch as you move your arms through the water can increase significantly, and you’re now dealing with more than a static 50m rating. As it’s impossible to predict how someone will move / use / swim with a watch, they always quote the static pressure. But to swim safely, the 50m is on the cusp, it’s probably ok if you use it in the bath lol.

[@AndrewMorganWatches]

Is the dynamic pressure of a casual swimmer at surface level really more than 50m of static water? Seems unlikely!
