Deepest diving rated watches made / still in production

[seadweller]

Can anyone advise what is the deepest diving rated watch made or still being made?

I know the ew Deep Sea SD is one of the them.

What else?

And most importantly, is can find in singapore..

Thanks

try calling (or better yet - visiting) WP or KHH or Cortina. Believe they have a piece or two every now and then.

How deep you want to go??

Sinn U2 - 2000 meters
Sinn UX - 12,000 meters "This oil filling – in combination with the case’s special design and gasket seals – keeps the UX’s case water-resistant to any reachable diving depth."

Bell & Ross Hydromax - 11,100 meters

Me? No lah, i just curious to know whats the deepest rated watch avaibale commercially to people like me who may not dive so deep but may desire to own such a timepiece..

the Sinn UX is quartz ?

hahaha...in states got a nice brand called UTS that have a 1000metres diver watch that is quite affordable..Enzo is another good brand....got ocean 7 too...doxa....

yes..doxa i heard and read before the shark hunter is rated at 5000FT

has a helium escape valve too...

basically i want to narrow it down anything that goes beyong 2500FT

[coldzy]

Breitling Avenger Seawolf

3000m or 10000ft

Yes, Sinn UX is quartz, which is why its not that popular. But if you want to go down that deep .. can lar. The watch will definitely survive. The rest leh ....

Check this out:

WATER PROOF!! : 39,600 Feet, 12,000 Meters, 6,600 Fathoms, Or 2.5 Leagues.

But I doubt it works under 39,600 Feet...

Hmmmmmmmmmmm...
very very interesting leh...

Seems all super super deep dive watches involve quartz and a special liquid that surrounds the internals to prevent the case from external pressures and lead to case compression...

I find the MTM a bit confusing. Allowing for temperature fluctations of the fluid to expand/contract I can understand. But wouldn't the casing allow expand/contract at the same time, then wouldn't the bubble be a liability instead of a benefit? Wouldn't the other watches which are completely filled, be more reliable in terms of holding up to the pressure, assuming that they've created the case & liquid to have the same thermal expansion properties?

This seems to tell me that will be a level of compression due to the casing as well, thereby transferring a level of compression onto the air bubble.

Or have I got it completely wrong?

"THE BUBBLE ALLOWS FOR EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION
AS THE WATCH ASCENDS AND DESCENDS AND AS THE
TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATES.

SINCE THIS FLUID FILLED CASE CANNOT BE COMPRESSED,
THE WATCH CAN WITHSTAND PRESSURES AT DEPTHS THAT
ARE EQUIVALENT TO THOSE EXERTED BY THE WEIGHT OF A
12 STORY BUILDING."

seriously i dun know ...

but i know that there was a diev watch made that is considered the mother of all diving watches made...

guess by whom ?

[116520]

ROLEX?
