Water resistance is an important feature even in everyday watches, protecting your timepiece from rain, hand washing, and accidental splashes. In this article, we explain water resistance ratings, such as 3 Bar, 5 Bar, and 10 Bar, and what they mean for daily use. We discuss the importance of gaskets, screw-down crowns, and sealed case backs in keeping moisture out of your watch.
We'll also highlight materials like stainless steel and Hardlex or sapphire crystal that contribute to water resistance. Whether you're choosing a mechanical watch or a quartz watch for daily wear, understanding water resistance helps you select the right watch for your lifestyle.
At Prime Timepiece, you'll find a range of water-resistant watches from brands like Benyar, Pagani Design, Cadisen, and Steeldive. Explore our collection to find the perfect everyday watch with the right level of water resistance for your needs.
