Please Note: While this watch was waterproof rated when originally produced, gaskets and seals wear out over time. Consequently, we do not guarantee that this watch retains its original waterproof rating. It would be best to have a watchmaker check all the gaskets and seals before subjecting it to water or high humidity conditions.
