  1. Not true. I have a $10 Submariner with 3 rubber seals in the crown like a gen trip-lock. Case back, crystal all seal like they should. Water resistant up to 6 bar (maybe more but my machine only goes to 6 bar). But that doesn't matter because not much of us go deeper than 60m :)

    It all depends on the factory that makes the watch, but in my experience most replica's are made really well when it comes to WR. The Tag Aquaracer has double pusher seals like the gen and also the Breitling Abyss is sealed to the max!

    The problem once again is Quality Check. Factory workers that don't screw down the case back properly or crystals that are pressed in tilted etc.

    +1 just check the watch yourself, grease the gaskets and test it. Never has a watch failed on me that way. But some watches are just notorious for lack of water resistant.
