TeeJay Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Omega Water Resistance.. We occasionally get questions about "How deep can I go with my Omega ?" Never had a problem with any Omega rep, (or any other reps, for that matter) in conditions from showering/bathing, to swimming against a wave machine. I've read that a watch is more likely to leak under slight immersion, such as under a faucet or bathing, than it is under greater pressure such as diving, as if there are any 'micro leaks', the increased pressure closes them. I've found that if it doesn't fog up from holding under a running faucet, it's not going to leak under other circumstances (not tried diving/scuba with a rep yet or had one pressure tested...) Only ever had one Panerai which leaked, I sent it back for replacement, and the replacement was fine. All this "don't get reps wet" rhetoric is mostly BS. As long as the watch is well made, and well maintained, there shouldn't be an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
