For divers who aren't using a scuba dive computer to manage their nitrogen levels, it's important to use dive tables to keep track of downtime. In order to make use of these tables effectively, a dive watch is required. How's a dive watch different from an ordinary wristwatch? Two things make it stand out. First, and most obviously, dive watches are water resistant. They also have a rotating bezel.

Water Resistance - a real dive watch will have a depth or pressure rating. Remember to look for depth ratings that are lower than you're intending to go. The depth rating is when the watch stops working, and that's something you don't want to experience. Therefore, even if you're not planning to go deeper than a hundred feet, look for a dive watch that's rated for two hundred. Remember that simple waterproof watches aren't the same thing. While you can take a shower or wash your dishes with them on, they have no ability to withstand pressure, and will break or leak while diving. You can find dive watches that go between a hundred and three hundred yards in most shops, and some specialty types are rated for five hundred. However, the more pressure your dive watches is rated for, the more expensive it will be.

Adjustable Bezel - The bezel is the rotating dial on your dive watches face. It has a pointer indicator, allowing you to align the bezel with your minute hand when you're ready to dive. It'll stay put while you're under water. To see how long you've been down, look at the position of the pointer, which is when you began the dive, and compare it to the position of the minute hand. Good dive watches have clear, easy to read faces that allow you to see just how long you've been down. For safety reasons, the bezel on a good dive watch will only turn counter-clockwise. That's so that if you bump it and get wrong information, it'll tell you that you've been down longer than you have, rather than allowing you to stay down for more time than you should.

How to Use a Dive Watch Properly

While a good dive watch can be expensive, it's worth the cost in the long run. Without it, it's impossible to time your dive correctly, and that can be hazardous to your health. Fortunately, you can find dive watches easily. Since they're so durable and water resistant, they've become popular as watches for street wear. Just beware of buying imitations that have the look, but not the features of a dive watch. Swim shops, sporting goods stores, and even discount stores online all carry dive watches, so getting one before you swim beneath the surface is simple.
