According to http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... t_106.html the A57035 Colt has 500M Water resistance. Mine as seen at http://www.parkersjewellers.co.uk/breit ... _3203.html says 300M
Why?

Thanks.

PS - my first Breitling, all I can afford, but so nice....

No watch is waterproof, they are water resistant to various depths.

As far as I know they were all 300m so Admin has made a mistake. There may have been a change part way through the production but I don't believe so.

A17035 and A57035 are 300m (older quartz are 200m), newer ones are 500m.

Right, but it's not an A57035 which was the OP's question.
