Pressing Testing
Pressure Testing for Water-Resistant Watches
Keep Your Watch Safe from Water & Dust
Your water-resistant watch is built to withstand daily wear, moisture, and the elements—but only if its seals are intact. Over time, gaskets can weaken, compromising the watch’s ability to stay water-tight.
That’s why regular pressure testing is essential. It’s a quick, non-invasive procedure that confirms whether your watch is still maintaining its factory-rated water resistance.
Why Pressure Testing Matters
Detects worn seals before water damage occurs
Ensures your watch is safe for swimming, showering, or active use
Ideal after battery replacements, servicing, or accidental knocks
Visit Ross Watch Repairs at The Shard or Canary Wharf for a free pressure test assessment—or book via our UK-wide postal service to keep your timepiece protected.
