is this really the best way to test it ? :)

fleed has a pressure tester. he's just showing off his hairy arm. as long as he's not showing off his speedo with it, it's cool.

yes, i have my own tester and i test all my watches up to 6-8atm.


all my three ultimate PO's (all from joshua) where waterresistant when they arived, but only up to 3atm.

the HE-valve have no seal (o-ring) and thats for sure dangerous.

i modified all my PO's.


here are some pictures about how i installed the orings (one in the HE-crown and two in the tubus).

this is the original HE-valve without any seals

Isn't warm water like in a bath or shower (or in this case the spa) suppose to be bad for whatever waterproof seals the watch has?


the watertemp on my spa is 34degrees, why should it be bad for the watch?
