So what does DNV GL (formerly Germanischer Lloyd) have to do with a watch
manufacturer from Frankfurt am Main? The renowned company tests and
certifies our diving watches according to a variety of criteria. One test focuses
on water resistance and pressure resistance, while a second test procedure
covers something never done before in the watchmaking industry: certification
in accordance with the European standards for diving equipment!
Testing for water resistance and pressure resistance
In each dive, time plays a crucial role in survival on every dive. Diving watches
must therefore be water-resistant, reliable and durable, and guarantee perfect
readability in all lighting and water conditions. the information we provide
about our diving watches is thus not merely captured in words, but proven in
practice as well. since 2005, DnV Gl has been testing our diving watches for
water resistance and pressure resistance. In accordance with these certification
standards, the ezm 3 and ezm 13 are pressure-resistant to 50 bar, the t1, u1, u212
and the u1000 series are pressure-resistant to 100 bar, while the t2, u2 and u200
series are pressure-resistant to 200 bar and the uX series is actually pressure-
resistant to any accessible diving depth. For this series, DnV Gl has confirmed
the pressure resistance of the case to 12,000 m and of the movement to 5,000 m
diving depth. the tests are repeated at regular intervals on all of these watches
in order to document the consistency of the quality.
germanischer lloyd (now
dnv gl) has confirmed
and certified the pressure
resistance.
