ROTATING BEZEL

The rotating bezel enables divers to measure both dive time and any other lapse of time. To measure time, simply turn the bezel to position the index (0 or 60) exactly opposite the minute hand. The position of this hand in relation to the bezel will then indicate the time elapsed since setting the bezel.

WATER RESISTANCE

Please check the details on the back of your Victorinox Swiss Army timepiece case and read the following information carefully:

Water-resistant to 3 ATM (100 feet/30 meters). Resistant to rain and splashes and accidental immersion, but must not be worn in the shower or when swimming.

Water-resistant to 5 ATM (165 feet/50 meters). May be worn in the shower or when swimming in shallow water. Do not wear when diving.

Water-resistant to 10 ATM (330 feet/100 meters). May be worn when swimming or snorkelling.

Water-resistant to 30 ATM (990 feet/300 meters). May be worn when swimming or free diving and scuba diving.

Water-resistant to 50 ATM (1650 feet/500 meters). May be worn when swimming or deep-sea diving.

The water resistance of your timepiece cannot be guaranteed indefinitely as joints may age; crowns or pushers may sustain knocks and climate or temperature may vary. We therefore recommend that you have the water resistance of your timepiece checked every 18 months or when the timepiece case is opened at an authorized Victorinox Swiss Army Service Center.

Never operate the crown and/or pushers when the timepiece is underwater and ensure that the crown and pushers are properly pushed back or screwed down after each use.

METER/BAR CORRELATION

Meter and bar are different things: underwater, there is combined air and water pressure. A depth of 10 meters equals 1 bar of water pressure and 1 bar of atmospheric pressure above water level, therefore 2 bars in total.
