One of the essentials for divers is a quality watch designed to withstand the rigors of underwater use. A quality dive watch enables a diver to confidently ascertain how much time has elapsed underwater and how much air remains in his or her breathing tank. According to voluntary ISO 6425 standards, dive watches should combine water resistance to 300 feet (100 meters) with a sturdy case and strap materials that are corrosion resistant. In a majority of cases, the strap is crafted from stainless metal or rubber.
In addition, dive watches should be equipped with an elapsed time indicator and have readability/visibility at nearly 10 inches (25 centimeters) in complete darkness. This is accomplished through lume materials applied to the watch hands, face, and bezel. The face is typically larger than an average watch, often in the 1.65-inch (42 mm) diameter range. Finally, the unidirectional rotating bezel should have indentations that allow for easy usage with diving gloves.
