Water resistance
The water resistance of your DETOMASO watch has been tested for
3 ATM.
This means that you may wash your hands and that it is spraywaterproof.
However, swimming, taking a shower and a bath with it or diving is not
suitable.
Water resistance is a non-lasting quality that requires annual check-ups,
especially prior to exposition of external stress because the built-in sealing
elements will decrease in their efficiency due to everyday use. Seals are
used to guarantee the water resistance of a watch. These seals have
a natural aging process and are prone to becoming porous due to the
effects of sweat and acids.
The ISO 2281 regulates criteria and standards that new watches must
meet.The resilience is stated in ATM on the base of the casing.
Your DETOMASO watch has a designated water resistance of 3 ATM.
The stated pressure of "3ATM" should not be mistaken for the diving
depth. It is merely the definition of the test pressure. A test pressure of
"3 ATM" is reached at a water depth of 30 m. However, you cannot dive
with this watch.
The guaranteed test pressure allowed to be imposed on the seals will be
compromised during swimming or when jumping into water.
This is most likely to occur if one jumps into water after an extended
period of sunbathing. The impact pressure and vacuum caused by sudden
cooling can cause damage. Please check the seals every time you change
the battery and renew them if necessary.
