Rip Curl watches are tested to the highest industry standards with the best Swiss pressure testing equipment
and are purpose built for Surfing ! NOTE : All Industry standards watch testing is done to an overpressure
situation in a static laboratory environment and does not signify a diving depth. See recommended usage table.
Due to the fact that Surfing is in no way a static sport there are influences that can effect a watches ability to
keep water out. eg : Frequent temperature changes, salt water and big wipeouts can diminish the longevity of the
watches rubber seals.
To keep your watch in peak condition for Surfing we recommend every 24 months you have your watch seals
replaced and fully tested at the Rip Curl Watch Service Centre.
