Watch Pressure Test in Singapore

2 listed shops

A Pressure Test confirms that a watch case is properly sealed. It usually follows a reseal, a new gasket, a crystal replacement or a service, and it is the way to know the case is closed correctly before the watch meets water again.

If you swim or dive with your watch, ask for a Pressure Test that matches how you use it rather than only a basic check. Dive watches in particular deserve testing after any work on the case.

If the test fails, the usual cause is a seal, the crystal or the crown, and the shop should explain what needs replacing. Ask for the result or a note of the test, which is useful the next time the watch is serviced.
