Breitling watches offer varying degrees of water resistance, depending on your model. Water resistance is measured in BARs and metres and advises how much water pressure your timepiece can endure. For example, 5 BAR represents 50 metres of submersion but this does not mean you should take your watch 50 metres below sea level. The 50 metres refers to the pressure the watch can experience if it was static at a depth of 50 metres. Typically, your Breitling watch can withstand swimming and surface water sports but if you have any doubts about the water resistance of your timepiece, ask our experts in our nationwide stores. Just call us at 0800 169 2329 or live chat with us.
The best way to maintain your Breitling watch's water resistance is to get it serviced every two years. Read more about how to look after your timepiece in our watch care guide or visit us in-store at your nearest Beaverbrooks Breitling stockist.
