What is a 100 meter water resistant watch?
A 100M water-resistant watch is a timepiece designed and tested to withstand exposure to Water up to a depth of 100 meters (328 feet). The water resistance rating indicates that the watch can withstand splashes, rain, showering, swimming, snorkeling, and surface water sports, but it is unsuitable for deep diving. Watches rated to 200m can withstand substantial pressure from activities such as high board diving, as well as prolonged submersion from scuba/recreational diving. The higher water-resistance rating is usually achieved due to features such as a screw-down crown and caseback.
