The last week the RSC watchmaker told me that my watch passed the pressure test with 80% which seems good to him.but actually i didnt understand what does it mean.(the probability of having the water inside is 20%) or what.any way i left because he doesnt seem a proffessional to me. So my question is that the true criteria of pressure test or by telling me if its 50 m or 20 m, etc., etc.. water resistant???

I would assume that he meant it passed the test to 80% of its rated depth. For example, a Submariner passed at 800 feet (instead of 1000).

What's the passing rate?

Jeez, I never heard of that before. Everytime I go to the watch maker my watches either "Pass" or they don't. I never heard of the % but then again I"m not an expert.

I have know idea about the rate. But it seemed very wear. Now iam not sure if its dangerous to merge my watch in water or its still resistant.

anyone know out there??

Did your watchmaker say you can swim with it?

how is the test carried out? I would think it would be either a pass or fail.
