almost no limits.....

There are several liquid filled watches like the EZM-2 from Sinn and a company which name I constantly forget :-(.
The Sinn goes to greater 5000 meters (15000feet) and the other company claims to go to somewhere of 12000 meters (36000 feet), which is the record holding depth I recall.

After a few meters you don't talk about water resistance anymore, because the outside pressure almost alone will press the seals together, after some real depth, you start to talk about "pressure resistance".

But who really cares?. I might be happy if I make 10 meters one day with my SM, maybe in the Maledives, that would be the goal ;-).

Cheers,
Amdreas
