Hi fellow Paneristas

Im thinking about buying a Panerai Pam092 and i was woundering about the watch water recistance, can you

waterproof this watch to 10atm?

All the reps are spotty. You may get one good up to 100m, or you may get one that get one that won't work with splashes. In my experience, most of them can be made to be pretty water resistance, whether it be a good gasket and grease on the caseback, or a few extra gaskets on the crown. Keep in mind that generally it isn't the tightness of the lever that's the problem, but the gap between the crown/tube and the case.

Good luck!

Plus you never know the condition of the crystal gasket, and that is all that is keeping any moisture from entering through the crystal area. They never add any sealant/glue/whatever to the crystal area.
