Any replicas that are truly waterproof

Recommended Posts

Misterinvestor

Hi:

I just joined this site and would like to find the highest quality replica that is waterproof...meaning I can swim with it....and superlume. Trusty Time shows these watches on their website as does TS Watch but I am not sure you can swim with them. Are there any such replicas available and from what reputable website.

 

Thanks for your advice.

Breitling Super Avenger

Breitling Skyland Avenger

Breitling SuperOcean Abyss

Breitling SuperOcean Steelfish 21j

Breitling SuperOcean Steelfish v2

AP Royal Oak Offshore Rubberclad

UN Maxi Marine Diver

PAM 292 cheap version

 

So yea...you can swim with reps

My Breitling Super Ocean Abyss 44mm has passed all tests thrown at it. However, I would say get anything you buy tested, just to be sure.

Not really. Try the search box in the top right, there has been a lot of threads about this especially recently, a 5 second search will get you all the info you need.

 

Also read the newbie stickies from the main page, a wealth of information in there.

Asking the same question thats been answered many times will not be received too fondly here.

And why post this in the scam sub-forum?

Yeah, most are water resistant to some extent (no watch is water proof) or can be made so.

However you need to have it checked first, any "watchstation" type booth in your local mall can do this. Naturally, taking

it to an AD (authorised distributor or retailer of the gen item) is a bad idea.

i have jumped in pools with a SOSF and the ocean with a PAM 243. I wouldn't recommend doing this though. I also bought a watch that I paid extra to have waterproofed and it was completely destroyed after being run under my faucet. Hit or miss I guess. Pressure testing at a watch smith is the way to go.

Or check out my thread on a DIY pressure tester that I use for my reps, all mine are now tested to 3ATM
