elma-spheric water check

Hi to you all!

just took my 16710 for a water check, and it was just fine.

I asked the RSC guy to replace all gaskets and to do another water check.

those are the results.

who knows to explain what do we see in them?

thank ahead.

Emanuel

I had a test like this done before but not on a Rolex. Usually Rolex does a wet test and looks for air leaking from the case when pressurized and submerged. I think this ticket is from a dry test where they subject the watch to pressures and then measure the flex (deformation) of the crystal. The less deformation, the better the gaskets are. Yours looks fine.
