Breitlingfan Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I haven't taken any chances with it but I would like to hear if anyone knows if it is or not. I figured the oushers may be a source of a leak in this watch . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Your best bet is to get yours tested. Just because one person's Carrera would be waterproof doesn't imply yours would be. There's no testing done on these watches at the factory and no certification by the dealers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Padge Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 My friend has one, and the case back had no gasket/O-ring installed. Also the crown does not screw into a tube, like most watches. This is one rep I would have to highly doubt its waterproofness.

Breitlingfan Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I'll get it tested and post my results. Thanks for the input!

anton Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 FYI, Nothing's waterproof; just water-resistant. How well it is sealed or pressurized (or not) determines it's resistance-ness. Try taking it into the shower with you. Most watches should be able to bear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheDude Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I think the word is resistance, not resistance-ness.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
