  • Fast and easy way to learn how to use the diver’s bezel on any dive watch. All diving watches have a rotating bezel used to time a dive. #divewatch #howto #divebezel #diverswatch
    Many don’t know what is a dive watch? How to use a Diver’s watch? What is a dive bezel? How to use a diver’s bezel? Here in this video I will be explaining all of it! How to use the diving bezel, how to read a bezel, and what makes a bezel ring on dive watches.
    How to properly use the diver bezel on any dive watch?
    As you notice it doesn't matter the brand whether it is Rolex, Omega, Breitling, Cartier, Ulysse Nardin, or a Bulgari, all dive watches have the same 60 minute unidirectional timing bezel. Unidirectional meaning you can only rotate the bezel one way, counter clockwise.
    Today at Gray and Sons Jewelers we pulled out a selection of preowned luxury dive watches from our luxury showroom in Miami beach, near Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood , and West Palm Beach.
    On the table we had the
    Breitling Super Ocean with dive bezel A13341 stainless steel water resistant up to 500 meters.
    Check out our preowned Breitling watches: www.grayandson...
    Omega Seamaster Co-Axial 210.32.42.20.01.001 stainless steel water resistant up to 300 meters.

    The diver bezel is quite simple to use.
    Here are the step by step instruction on how to use any divers watch:
    1.Before a diver’s descent the diver will rotate the bezel until the triangle aligns with the current position of the minute hand.
    2. As time passes, you can look at the minute hand compared to the bezel to see how many minutes have elapsed since you started your dive.
    Now you have learned and know how to use and set your bezel on any dive watch!
    If you would like to see these dive watches on your wrist, come and visit us at our Luxury Showroom in Miami Florida, right across the world class Bal Harbour Shops!
    The number 1 rule with these luxury diving watches is to screw down your crown. The most common reason these dive watches come into gray and sons repair shop needing emergency
    service is water entrance through the crown. That was not screwed into the watch case properly. Did your Rolex, Omega, Ulysse Nardin, or any luxury watch get water inside?
    Act Fast and send it in to our watch repair store near Coral Gables, Brickell Ave, Key Biscayne, Chicago, Huston, Los Angeles, New York, Miami and anywhere in the United States. We Can help you restore your swiss watch in no time!
    Click here to send in your watch for repair: www.grayandson...
    Another important safety feature on the bezel is the 0 to 15 minute calibration used to time your ascent properly, and take into account slow decompression while surfacing.
    The bezel allows you to time in minutes your various “stops” on the way up to prevent decompression sickness known as The Bends.
    Rolex like most dive watches has a 15 one minute calibration
    Some luxury watches like Cartier has the one minute calibration to the 20 minute marker. The Omega bezel has minute markers completely around the bezel 0 to 60 minutes.

      @bag3lmonst3r72 8 місяців тому

      Because we're human and we forget. There are a lot of variables when you go in the water. You can't afford to get distracted or forget when you go in, otherwise you can die. The bezel helps to make sure that doesn't happen.
