Jacobs The Jeweller Releases Report On Waterproof And Water Resistant Watches

Jacobs The Jeweller, a company based in Berkshire, England, has just released a blog post that explains the difference between waterproof and water resistant watches. The report can be found at the following URL: http://jacobsthejewellers.com/blog/water-resistant-waterproof-watches-available-jacobs-jewellers-reading/.

Adam Jacobs, spokesperson for the company, made the following statement: "If you look at the opposite side of a watch's face, known as the case back, printed on the reverse are numbers and words that identify it as either water-resistant or waterproof. Sadly, too many people get the two confused often. Before you go showering, swimming or even diving with your trusty timepiece around your wrist, get to know what those markings at the back of your watch mean."

The report explains the differences between waterproof and water resistance watches and provides tips to the readers on what to look for, as well as what to expect, when making their final buying decision. For example, for those who are interested in buying waterproof watches, Jacobs The Jeweller advises in the report that they need to look for the ISO 6435 mark on the dial or case. This mark guarantees that the watch will be able to withstand the harsh environments when submerged under water at the indicated depth number.

The company said that a big mistake many people make is believing that they can go diving when wearing a watch that claims to be water resistant up to 30 meters. Adam Jacobs added that while the water resistant watch may fare well under these conditions, it can never provide guarantee that it will be completely waterproof.
