Subs don't have doors, he meant to say 'hatch'. It was ingrained in me for eight years, 30 years ago, and I still can't use the word 'door'.

Unless you went saturation diving with the crown unscrewed, you should be fine.

Yes, all the seals that matter are inside.

If it was only the door you should be ok, as the air pressure keeps the water out. But if the window was open as well you might be in trouble.

You should be fine. But in the future, suggest you keep the door shut.

Mean even the crown unscrew the watch will still water proof? because the crown lock is the second lock to avoid water to get in?
