Water resistance

The water resistance of your DETOMASO watch has been
tested for 5 ATM. This means that you may wash your
hands or take a bath with it and that it is spraywaterproof.
However, swimming, taking a shower 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 become
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 desig-
nated water resistance of 5 ATM. The stated pressure of
„5 ATM" should not be mistaken for the diving depth. It is
merely the definition of the test pressure. A test pressure
of „5 ATM" is reached at a water depth of 50 m.
