>need a watch and I'm poor
you have grandparents that are still alive? when my grandpa died i snagged an old watch of his thats literally older than my dad, once i slapped a new band on it, it immediately became my favorite watch.

one time i was on acid staring at it thinking of all the times it's seen and wondering just how many more times it will see.

will keep for years to come and give to my son when he's old enough to appreciate it.

Whats an /fa/ water-proof watch under $300? I like this Seagull >>6619466 but it isn't waterproof

>> No.6619902

>>6619873
The label "waterproof" is rarely used anymore because it's all about depth/pressure: 3atm, 5atm, 10atm, etc.

I highly doubt you'll be doing any professional diving with a watch. Lots of watch companies tell you different things but most say that 3atm is only good for splashes, washing your hands, and rain, which, IMO is a load of shit. They tell you that 3atm is not enough for swimming because of "dynamic pressure": allegedly, pressure goes up significantly while moving in water.

While swimming at no greater a depth than the average pool, pressure goes up, but not enough to surpass 3atm. However, I still wouldn't swim with a 3atm watch because A) why risk it: just take it off and B) I don't expect the testing for a 3atm watch to actually be very rigorous.

If you'd like more info about "dynamic pressure", there are dozens of threads on this topic/myth on respectable watch forums.

>> No.6619952

>>6619902
While I'm still here, I guess I'll keep going:

Some say that companies purposely underestimate the water resistance of watches so as to avoid a higher number of warranty issues and the like.

Some say that the watch industry has purposely perpetuated the "dynamic pressure" myth so as to justify the cost of more expensive watches with greater water resistance.

Heat should also be taken into consideration when considering water resistance. Gaskets between openings in the watch and their respective covers seal the movement from outside contaminants, such as water. Heat, especially that of a sauna or hot shower could potentially damage these gaskets, allowing for breach.

Again, this could all be avoided if you take of your goddamn watch.
