BUILT FOR LIFE . . . AND LONGER
Unlike a quartz watch that uses a battery and plastic, mechanical watches use a micro-machined metal springs and gears to keep accurate time. Introducing a magnetic force can cause precision metal parts to stick together and malfunction. Even a cell phone can be enough to affect the accuracy of your watch. Our movements protect against the extreme magnetism of an MRI machine.

The durablility of SEAHOLM automatic watches is becoming legend. Designed to withstand a 10 foot drop, an equivalent of 15,000 pounds of gravitational force, our watches easily surpassed that loft goal. Independent testing by Stess Enginering Services found zero deviation in accuracy after a 10ft drop, exceeding tradintional watch shock standards by 400%. Crucial for those times wehn you live at the extremes, our shcok resistance supriority is just as important for everyday wear.

There is more to "water resistance" than most people are aware of. Due to pressure exerted from activity, watches tested to 200M under ISO 28810 are only suitable for bathing, shallow swimming and limited underwater activities. All SEAHOLM automatic watches are tested to the highest standard, ISO 6425...Diver's 200M
If it doesn't say Diver's 200M, leave it on the boat.
"The automatic watch is a marvel of engineering. Well built, they can last a lifetime or more. But SHOCKS, EXPOSURE TO WATER and MAGNETIC FIELDS all adversely affect your watch's performance. The watches that best protect against these forces will be the most durable, reliable and long lasting."
