Why are produced watches with water resistance up to 1000 meters? At a depth of 1000 meters reigns eternal darkness. This is a dead area of no return: the pressure there - 100 kilograms per square centimeter! Lower back man - it's like that stuff under a hydraulic press: all the bones and entrails in the blink of an eye will scatter in a million pieces. The answer is simple - 970 meters are a guarantee of safety and reliability of long-term waterproofing hours.
The attractiveness of the deep akin to the charms of such cars like Ferrari or McLaren. Each of these missiles on wheels develops great speed - to the limit only the downforce created by their well-designed buildings, many times blown in wind tunnels, do not give them away from the earth's firmament and fly away to the devil horns. However, owners of these machines are very rarely develop such speed.
The same goes for chronometry, but Master Compressor Diving watch even more special masterpiece. On the watch market is full of watches with water resistance up to 1000 m, 2500 m and even up to 3000 m, but these figures are laboratory method, when the clocks are put into a small chamber in which with the help of special equipment is gradually pressurized. But in the real world hours last checked in 1953, when the special edition watches Rolex Submariner secured to the outer wall of the submersible Auguste Piccard and dropped to a record depth of 3160 m. But we must not forget that these hours were not the usual serial, and special instrument for research.
Over the past years, since none of the leading Swiss companies have never plunged its deep-clock to limit the claimed depth. Repeat this experience only Jaeger-LeCoultre, "live" test their Master Compressor Diving watches at maximum depth.
"We have taken this step, because now everything has gone crazy on advertising, and on these trials, no one thinks - says Jerome Lambert. - Another problem is that journalists often simply reprint information from press releases, and nobody is tested. But we wanted to show this result, proving the advantage of our watches. "
