Next time somebody tells you they have an amazing, new waterproof watch...tell them about the crushed Oyster.
We dropped a standard Rolex Oyster case (the Explorer, guaranteed down to 330 feet) into a pressure tank.
Then we took the pressure down to 1000 feet to see what happened.
Nothing happened.
Then we went down to 1500 feet. And nothing happened.
At 1700 feet the crystal began to bend a bit.
And at 1900 feet the back showed signs of bending.
At 2000 feet the crystal and the back bent severely. And if there had been a movement inside it would have been crushed. But it wouldn't have been wet. The Oyster case was still watertight.
Which is not bad for a watch we guarantee to 330 feet.
