So how deep can your Sub go?
Next time someone asks if it's safe to go in the shower or do the washing-up with their 1000m/3000ft rated Sub.
Send them here. *courtesy of this website (cropped pic) https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.d...e-ocean/%3famp |

Ps
If you do decide to have a little swim down in those depths with your Sub on - to see what it's like, watch out for low flying Great White Sharks. |

Thanks for sharing the chart.
The Submariner is 300m / 1000 ft. So only goes as deep as about the deepest scuba dive. (Note this chart is in meters.) But yeah, still safe for the pool, shower, let's not be silly. |

Just goes to show how amazing the 1,220m SeaDweller 43 is…
…and that’s before looking at the Deep Sea SeaDweller’s mind-boggling 3,900m. Superlative divers. |

Perhaps but in the real world more men have gone to the moon than have dived passed 300m just wearing scuba gear. And the dive rating for watches like the SD or DSSD will never be used by man or superman in water to max depth. Although a technical achievement its basically mine is bigger than yours today, and no real use to all divers. Except saturation divers who might use the HEV valve to let any HELIUM gas that enters there watches when recompressing in there living chamber as they recompress to normal surface pressure. And its very doubtful today that most all dive type watches ever see any water other than perhaps a dip in the pool or shower.
