Water Resistance: Water resistance is not a permanent feature of your watch. The rubber gaskets used in sealing your watch deteriorate over time. These gaskets can experience accelerated deterioration if you expose your watch to salt or chlorinated water, soaps and chemicals. At Christies we recommend having the gaskets replaced in your watch every 18 months or on battery change. If your watch is exposed to salt or chlorinated water, soaps or chemicals, we recommend replacement yearly to maintain the water resistance rating of your watch.
