  With summer here, many people enjoy going swimming. If you wear a water-resistant watch, you can swim with confidence while keeping it on your wrist. If you plan to buy a water-resistant watch, do you know how to choose the right one? Here is a guide on how to select a water-resistant timepiece.

  Methods for choosing a water-resistant watch

  1. Choosing a water-resistant watch: first consider the size

  Anyone at the forefront of fashion, or stepping towards it, knows that watch diameters have shown a slight trend back towards smaller sizes over the past two years. However, sports watches remain popular in larger sizes. This is easy to understand: when you are stripped down to workout gear, working up a sweat in the gym, a larger sports watch matches that confident, sunny physique you have pictured so many times. It fits your vibe, offering clear legibility and striking presence. For instance, Rolex increased its Oyster watch size this year, introducing a new 39 mm model, proving that larger sizes remain the go-to choice. Some worry that their slim wrists cannot handle a large watch, but in truth, it simply opens up a fresh visual dynamic. Furthermore, market-wise, larger-diameter watches hold higher value than smaller ones; for example, the Omega Seamaster 36 mm is priced about 30% lower than the 41 mm version.

  2. Choosing a water-resistant watch: next look at the bezel

  The bezel is a key factor in determining a sports watch's value. Although it may not seem to take up much of the watch's exterior, insiders know it is a vital defining feature. Take the Rolex Submariner: the ceramic bezel 116610 is priced significantly higher than the steel bezel 16610. Additionally, this year's new Rolex Yacht-Master has also switched to a ceramic bezel. Why are ceramic bezels so superior? Because the material is hard, wear-resistant, and scratch-resistant, meaning the markings on the bezel will not easily wear off even with long-term wear. Steel bezels, on the other hand, perform slightly below ceramic bezels in these aspects.

  3. Choosing a water-resistant watch: finally look at the style

  There are many classic sports watch styles, such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus and Aquanaut, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, the Rolex Submariner, and the Omega Seamaster. There is a key reason to choose a classic model: most sports watches are steel, and while steel watches are generally lower in value than gold ones, certain famous steel sports models command higher value than gold versions. Choosing a classic sports watch means inherent high value, strong value retention, and excellent value for money, making it thoroughly worth acquiring. For instance, the Omega Seamaster features the brand-new Master 8500 Co-Axial movement with a warranty of up to 4 years, offering a much more favourable price point than the Rolex Submariner or Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. Moreover, Omega enjoys extremely high brand recognition in the domestic market, making it an excellent choice.
