Should claimed waterproof depths not be taken literally then? Asking for a friend.

Yup, not to be taken literally, found this chart;

The scuba row looks wrong on that. 100m + (depending on manufacturer, ISO etc) normally OK for diving.

Yeah, I would expect 200 metres watch to cope with scuba, although have notice some can’t really cope.

Thanks Ed. I always play it safe but good to know, especially with non screw down crowns.

@umop3pisdn love that, the colour just makes me think of the Mediterranean.

Nice

Quartz diver FTW.

Cheers, just looked on eBay and can't believe the price of used ones.

You been to 200m Scoble?!

I really like that, reminds me of my first Timex... Wish I still had it, got it for my seventh birthday...

No, and never will.

There were quite a lots of articles about certain brand not really design for 200 metres, whether some can (ISO as leggy_blonde said).

Pretty wild isn't it?

I've taken my 50m WR £15 Casio posted earlier to just over 30m by mistake with no probs. Not much risk at that price though!

Further evidence that your style gets worse with age. Yuung Joe was drip.

The UK Squale dealer Page and Cooper is bankrupted.

It's a shame. I like p&c.

I like p&c.

Nice guys, great service, charging significantly more than other people was never going to work out well.

I think there are some extra nuances. @Regal posted something on it recently.

Watchgecko seem to have some stock, not sure if it's grey market.

More from the argos catalogue

Peace and love to all .....

Oh interesting I've had my eye on those for a while. They're bigger than I thought

Congratulations, you've been after one for a while!

Yeah it's not tiny. Just measured it as 41mm across. Hardly any bezel and so a nice big clear face. I like it.
