What to check before you buy a dive watch
- Water resistance: 200 m is enough for swimming and diving; 300 m or more (Submariner, Seamaster 300M) is the professional standard.
- Bezel: a ceramic bezel (Rolex Cerachrom, Omega) keeps its colour; check that it turns only one way.
- Size and thickness: 39 to 42 mm wears best; very large divers (Deepsea, Planet Ocean) are heavy.
- Movement: an automatic movement with a long power reserve (70 hours on new Rolex and Tudor) is the easiest to live with.
- Bracelet: a quick-adjust clasp (Rolex Glidelock, Tudor T-fit) lets you loosen it on hot days.
Dive watch types
- Luxury divers: Rolex Submariner, Deepsea and Sea-Dweller, Omega Seamaster Diver 300M and Planet Ocean, Panerai Submersible.

Care and maintenance
- Rinse the watch in fresh water after the sea or a pool and turn the bezel while rinsing to clear salt and sand.
- Screw the crown down fully before you swim.
- Have the seals and water resistance tested every 2 to 3 years.
Common mistakes

- Pressing chronograph pushers under water.
- Skipping the water resistance test after a battery or service.
- Ignoring the warranty and where the service centre is.
