- Will cheap Cronos dive watch that is rated for 1000 meters / 100 bars survive our deep sea / pressure chamber that can reach 300 bar pressure or 3000 meters / 2 miles depth? What will happen to watch on bottom of the ocean? Will it implode? Will the glass break?

Send the watch to another youtuber like Nekkid Watchmaker so he can take it apart and see if it is damaged!
4:45 So at 275 bar time stops?
It would be really cool if you could find a watchmaker to partner with for these videos. They could make videos taking apart the watches after you test them to see how the internal parts were affected. That would be really interesting to watch in my opinion.
Hi guys, this is an automatic watch. You did not wind it before putting it in, which is the only reason it stopped in the tank. The watch powers itself through physical movements, which is why it started again after you handled it. 😊
I'll bet that I like Watches channel is really popular!
Incredible video! Thank you Lauri and Anni! I am thrilled with the performance of that watch…. I can not wait to see what happened inside the watch! You have done a wonderful thing for me and my channel to so thank you so much again!
This was amazing thanks for sending the watch to them. 👍 Maxi must be thrilled.
Well Gary you picked a winner. I was thinking it would last up to 2300m-2400m......I'm glad I was wrong. I can't wait to see the insides.
How good was that! Can’t wait to see what it’s like inside! Chinese watches are just cheap rubbish though aren’t they!?😜
That was just incredible!
Nice one matey
Dive watches are usually designed with a curved crystal. As the pressure increases, the crystal starts to flatten, and the design makes it even more watertight. The crown on dive watches usually have two gaskets to stop water ingress.
sapphire does not flatten, although your theory is, in general, sound, because pressure does indeed diminish tolerances between different parts
After watching this video I had to buy this watch .Knowing you have a rock solid watch on that can go 3000 meters deep is amazing.The Rolex deepsea homage is my favourite watch and I couldn’t go past the cronos.The price for this craftsmanship is indisputable.Keep up the pressure tests you are doing a wonderful job .
I love the “deapsea chamber”!!
It's very deap!
I ended up buyung this watch based on the test here. Been a great watch so far. Changed out the watch strap though. The back of the watch now has "Tested to 3000m on Hydraulic Press Channel" engraved on the watch back. Real solid watch, impressed an acquaintance of mine who is a deep water certified diver/dive instructor/rescue diver.
The video i was waiting on , i love this concept. I wear 300m and 1000meter resistant watches all the time but always doubt the claims. Either way still overkill for any situation
I think all of the 300 meter watches that we have tested are done over 700 meters. So the watch is going to be able to take more than you probably :D
@@HydraulicPressChannel yeah kindoff amazing how they over perform. 2.7km is alot more than I expected , I was guessing about 1400 meter max.
"I wear 300m and 1000meter resistant watches all the time" When it rains, I do the same -- better safe than sorry...... ;-)
Same. Yet I'm scared to wear my watches in the shower LOL.
Maybe test some small water-proof containers, like the one the watch was in, or small "dry bags" like to protect a phone when boating.
Cronos has updated the same watch with new case back logo showing off the 3000m pressure test from this channel. They also updated the 1000m to 2000m. I have one and really nice watch.
Just ordered mine with gradient blue black dial. Can't wait, what an impressive watch!
@@alamore5084
Al your going to shit your pants. I have spent thousands on watches that do not look this good. Enjoy it!
@@saturnreturns613 Thanks Saturn. My collection is relatively small, but after that video I had to order it. It looks so well designed and smart enough to rock with a suit. Looking forward to it!🤘

For sure! It is a big boy @ 234 grams sized on my 7.5 inch wrist. You simply cannot beat the value.
🐻❄️🍭 Totally awesome
Respect to Cronos - achieved a very impressing result here. Just imagine the movement regularly ran out of power during the test and as soon as it was moved it picked up ticking again...
Is this your first day seeing an automatic watch ? It's also a disposable garbage movement but yeah.
@@Mile-long-list NH35 movements are fine.
A better price/performace ratio is not found elsewhere
@@microwaveoven2 yeah it's one of the most reliable movements out there. Looks like we found a snob
@@rowdy6274 Nah, just another "no content" troll.
Would never happen at 2.7 km depth. Imagine how busy you'd be, trying to get to the surface, not like you'd make it, but hey, most people die trying.
Welcome back to hydraulic press channel
Thanks for watching and have a nice day
I really like that new digital pressure gauge. It's Prrritti Guud.
I really like that it saves the peak pressure
@@HydraulicPressChannel And that we can see the peak pressure the entire time without you having to press a button like on the force meter you use with the hydraulic press.
@@HydraulicPressChannel I can't find any information on how strong a train jack is , I think it's would blow up your press
It's preeeety gooot!
@Kex Slams still would be cool to see it in the press
Two suggestions
“Thank you for your order of the time capsule 2 million”
Or
“We’ve been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty”
Sadly however, both those ideas would not make any sense to the future generations in and of themselves…
I just put them up as good jokes based on current meme gags, and of course a channel related joke
For those things to make sense
The time capsule 2 million…would need to contain a computer hard drive or USB stick or something on which was stored a digital copy of the channels ENTIRE library, thereby the people who discover it in several hundreds years will not only get a glimpse into earths past as to what some did for enjoyment, but would give them the means to appreciate the joke of the time capsule being labelled that…
In 500 years, they might be thinking: "What is a car?"
@@WoodworkerDon one would hope that the trends of political groups to repeat the mistakes of history rather than learn from them are overcome…and in so doing the concept of a “history book” in whatever way it’s conveyed still is actually a thing…should overcome that issue quite nicely
Further assuming other trends like “inability to read” gets stopped from being perpetuated as well
@@trayolphia5756 No........it will be archaic to anyone who finds it in 500yrs. Let them solve or assume they solved it.
@@fivecitydirttracker4776 we find things hundreds even thousands of years old and we figure it out…what’s to say they won’t…
Furthermore, the advancements by correlation…leaving what would be a severely antiquated data storage device would present the challenge of “how do we get access to its contents considering our advancements”
Thank you for showing this pressure test on your channel. It's an amazing result for the watch!

It's an automatic watch. That means it needs to be wound up to run. If the watch's spring system was just barely wound up before the test that can explain why it stopped after a while - and start running again once Lauri picked it up and turned it (the rotor inside wounds up the spring). Impressive that it took 3x the indicated pressure.
An automatic watch means that it winds automatically. There is a balance wheel on the back of the watch that winds the spring when the watch is moved.
@@Floortile83 The assumption is that the spring was barely wound, he didn't say it wasn't an automatic or that it was a hand wound watch?
@@Floortile83 You've got your terms wrong. The balance wheel in a mechanical watch, is the time keeping part which makes sure the unwinding of the main spring occurs at a regular rate for keeping time. It's the little wheel which quickly swings back and forth at a regular rate.
What you are referring to, in typical modern automatic watches, in generally referred to as a weighted rotor.
@@SilentNoises91 Exactly. For some of my Swiss automatics, just merely picking one up which is unwound, gives it enough oomph to get it ticking. But not for long. Which could explain what we witnessed here.
@@beardymcbeardface69 & @.drieN_TV Correct :)
I want one of those watches. That was bloody impressive!!!!

The Rolex deep sea at over £10,000 is rated for 3900m. Cronos did very well!
Yea, but the price of the Rolex includes all the women that will wanna date you too. That's why it's more expensive.
I can’t get a dog to bark at me! Maybe I’ll get a Rolex 😉
@@Floortile83 practically no woman cares about your watch. In fact, pretty much no one, independent from gender, cares about your watch.
Rolex does a nice imitation of Invicta
@@madferret2045 not true. I care about my watches
Amazing to see the air bubbles grow in size so quick!
Sent here by Gary at I like watches, and subscribed to both HPC and BTP 😎🤙🤙🤙
It actually seemed to still being running at the max depth, when it "stopped" the seconds hand was in the middle of two notches. By the time he released the preasure, it had moved to about 3/4 to the next mark from 1/2.
I’m a fan of the I Like Watches channel and was really interested to see how the Cronos did in your machine. With cheaper watches like this one you always wonder if the depth rating is accurate and with this one it seems like it is. Seriously tough watch 💪
If you watch all the other watches they've tested, most easily withstand 200m of pressure, even when they're only rated to 100m. More than likely the better made Chinese watches like cronos, San Martin, steeldive, heimdallr, proxima can easily withstand the 200m+ of pressure.
@@gilbertoflores7397 Oh absolutely. The brands you mention have a well deserved reputation for quality and in general watches are on the whole way more waterproof than anybody really needs in an average day to day. This was an extreme example and I always tend to take the view that if something sounds too good to be true then it probably is. But I was wrong to be so pessimistic in this case
@@garethsigrist8714 I've never understood that sort of thinking. Orient makes 100 dollar, 200m divers. No one questions that. But because its an affordable Chinese watch (a well made, better feeling and better quality it can't be as good or reliable?) Too many times people dismiss these and say they're not "true divers" because they're not certified, yet they more than likely pass should they be tested. This becomes all too clear when they've tested non divers and they can easily withstand 200m of pressure, and regular non certified divers makes it well past 300m+.
@@gilbertoflores7397 sorry to necropost but the big reason we trust orient and not the Chinese brands is simple. Orient and others like Seiko sell directly and through ADs, all above-board. If they make claims that aren't true there is legal recourse for their claims to be tried in our courts. If the Chinese brands don't match their claims though there's really no options, no legal standard against false advertising. Established brands are a known quantity but the Chinese brands are much more of an unknown. But as we can see and as I can personally attest to, plenty of the Chinese brands do their due diligence and really do make a good product and advertise and rate it honestly. I have a Steeldive and a Pagani sub, both of which I have had in some very punishing water resistance situations and they have worked admirably, as well as withstanding an impressive amount of shock, vibration, and magnetic fields. The magnetic resistance is the most impressive to me. I've had these watches around actively running electric motors, hot electric wiring, and all my magnetic tools like my flashlight end cap and my neodymium magnet-on-a-stick and they've all resisted magnetization.
That's bonkers! Can't wait to see Gary's reaction to this video lol
He just did. 18 minutes ago.
@@corenchiereynaldo2417 Ay! Thank you for letting me know, I will check it out! :)
Message for the future: “Don’t harm each other over petty issues; instead, come together and enjoy each others’ company”.
I also think you guys should test metal containers inside the pressure chamber! Maybe metal thermoses, and mini metal subs/shipping containers.
He has another BTP video where he had a company 3D print some small subs from Titanium. So that will be a future Deep Sea Chamber video.
Hah if only it was that simple the issues are never petty for some.

And a very interesting test on the Cronos watch! This proofs that there are good Chinese watch fabricators.
Great performance. I can't wait for Gary to open it up! 👍
Yep interesting to see did any water get in
Hey now it runs! Whaaat!?

hehe pressure makes watch go crack
Ah so this is your other channel! I was trying to find this under "Beyond the Press" but I found it here! Excellent!
Please test Casio MDV-106-1A Duro.
You provide the watch?
The series about super deep diving is one of my favorite and the only thing that might be cool to be improved is the way of measuring the pressure. First of all I prefer the classic pressure gage to the digital one and if it has to be digital, then I think that it would be cool to see the graph (time vs pressure) generated with a computer instead of filming the digital pressure gage directly.
Other than that the video was super cool and I wish you will develop the series.
Definitely digital, then KISS. I holstered a slide rule in 1961. I carry an HP-15C now. I want answers, not lace on black silk panties. (OK- a question of priority not exclusion).
What an excellent advert for the durability of that Cronos dive watch.
Great video! I think it would be interesting to see you do a depth test of the Invicta Hydromax. It’s a very large watch rated to 1000m, but with the case size, I really think it can go much deeper than that.
финский инглиш звучит смешно

Was donating platelets recently, and thought the vacutainers used to get samples would be interesting in the deep sea chamber, since they're already at a significant vacuum.

I think the watch should be working OK tbh..it wasn't wound before the test so that covers the stop/start as you picked it up!.. One hell of a watch!
Brilliant 😁 Looks like we can trust the depth rating on Chronos watches
Trick is though, most of us probably won't ever test it out.
And you still can't wear them in the shower.
trust depth rating, yes. trust your spelling, no.
@@jimmyb1451 why can't you wear them in the shower?
@@breddythewinner Because steam.
Water is the only molecule known to man that expands as it gets colder and shrinks as it gets hotter.
@@jimmyb1451 but the pressure test shows that it can tolerate well over 1000M of water pressure. how would simple steam break the seal of the case if it is so well constructed that it could tolerate >1000M. i've worn several of my non-ISO field and dive watches in hot showers with no issue with steam before.
Wow , thats a good watch !
Great test !
Most dive watches have very good warranties. Curious to see if you send it in would they honour it or could they even figure out what happened lol.
When they ask 'Ok sir, at what depth did you first notice the issue?' The should reply with ' something around 3'000 metres while freediving, don't know for sure as the depth gauge stopped after only a mile and a half/2 kilometres'. :)
They weren't wearing any breathing gear while the watch experienced the pressure so that isn't entirely false. :)

\m/, UP THE IRONS ,\m/
^As one suggestion for the deep sea bottle. Long live metal.
Metal corrodes in seawater (OK, not Inconel 686). Metal is not transparent. Walk along the beach, see a message in a glass bottle. Happy days! See a rusted steel cylinder...not so good. Panic. Police, maybe military.
@@xroqus lol dude.... Up the irons is the slogan for Iron Maiden fans.
That watch has amazing performance. Hats off to the manufacturer.
For the price...I am absolutely impressed. If it was eco drive like Japanese it would probably still work.Pressure of 300Bar probably damaged mechanism as watch shrinked enough. But keeping water out and that glass???Woow amazing👏👏👏
That was an incredible performance.

Unbelievable performance, especially for a budget brand. Never understood why a person would dive with a Rolex when these inexpensive beater watches perform this well.
I strongly doubt Rolex owners dive with them...
@@thodorissaritziotis3306 I know a guy who does!
If he can afford a Rolex, he can afford to dive with it too. I won't pony up $10k to $15k for a watch. I could, but why bother with cheaper "homage" versions available for 5% or less of the price.
That watch is really good for the price to withstand all that. Maybe try get Rolex to send over a watch.
Not sure they will - what if it fails compared to the much cheaper Cronos ... big hit to their reputation.
Plus they may take extra precautions before they send it to them. Whereas this Cronos was off the shelf.
More of these extreme testing please.
Oh shit new HPC video youtube didn't notify me about! Time to ring the bell :D
Loved the video, Lauri!
That's a serious watch
Fun fact. One of the best places on earth to keep champagne and wine is the bottom of the ocean. I believe they have pulled up 100 year old bottles of champagne and it was still good to drink.
The Titanic! Champagne aging in fjords. HOWEVER...the cork must be free to push in to touch the liquid, to balance hydrostatic pressure. Light ends at 200 meters depth.
Did the watch get the bends when you let it out ? 😂😂
Awesome video, with interesting final results. I got here from ILW, but you got a new subscriber from now on.
Are you guys from Finland btw? I heard a short sentence that sounded Finnish to me, but I might be wrong on that.
Thats a solid watch!
Please try with dive computers.. like cressi or mares ....
Those are bit pricey but I think I could ask if some manufacturer would send one :D It would be funny to see what they think when you dive 1000 meters and then come up with in one second :D

You should add some Mustamakkara into the chamber next to the watch as a control for the test.
I have one nº 28/99. And this video comfirm I was not wrong. Many Thanks.
Enjoyed the video 😊
9:50 That bang from the bottle gave me a jumpscare that I almost dropped my phone!
True. The gel fill was not quite enough. The neck collapsed. Hydraulic shock flew down, hit the Jello, and burst the bottle. Learning experience.
Nice! If I ever want to scuba dive down to the Titanic I know I'm solid. By solid I mean my head has been crushed and is much more dense.
Interesting comment considering...
Wow amazing watch. Thanks for the watch
Anni's clay figures have been getting more detailed lately!
I think her friend Sari made that one.
Fun little video it is interesting to see what watches fail or not and the imploding bottle was awesome
20 Deep Divers were sent to the Artic in 2021. 15 more will be deployed worldwide in 2022. In the vicinity of 2600 AD, when the nylon anchor line degrades to failure, the world will be reminded that history still exists. LET'S GO BRANDON! We aim for a -1000m to -1200m bottom depth. Too deep to fish, 600 m safety pullback.
That’s almost 3 kilometers!
What if you machined a plug to fit into a cylinder so it was a bit of a press fit, and ran that through the chamber? It'd be fun to see if the pressure is enough to press the plug in.
I could listen to your accents all day! 😂👍
Awesome channel.
Very informative video. Thanks for uploading it. Hey, can you do a test on Pagani or Phyllida 200m diving GMT watch? Lots of people are interested in those brands. Thank you a ton. Have a nice day.
I own one. Explorer II homage by Pagani Design. Great watch but runs a bit fast, gains about 3 minutes/week. Probably could get adjusted, just don't want to break the seal. Now my Glycine Incursore 46mm runs perfect, almost quartz like accuracy.
If you stopped and look at the watch it had a valve on its side. And deep sea dive watch should have one. It is to let the watch equalize to the pressure of the dive chamber so when you dive the water will not crush it and when they bring you back to surface pressure the valve lets the gasses out to keep the watch from exploding.
That valve is an Helium escape valve. The reason for it is that Helium molecules are much smaller than air molecules, so they manage to "slip past" the rubber gaskets in the watch.
Just think about how a rubber balloon filled with Helium deflates over time. The helium escapes through the "gaps" in the rubber, just like small fish gets through a little larger net.
That means that when you're in a decompression chamber for a long time, helium seeps into the watch over time. When you then bring it back to surface pressure, the helium expands and can cause the crystal to pop out. The helium escape valve prevents that. :O)
Actually, the helium gets in from saturation diving, when you stay at depth for several days breathing Oxy-He mix. There is usually a chamber/habitat you stay in for duration of dive. Decompression takes days too. But, yes, the valve is there to allow the He to escape during decompression. Otherwise you risk the crystal blowing out or worse.
Holy f@ck! I love cheap watches and this is *amazing!* Gonna order one before price doubles!
Could it be that the back was pushed in further than the about one mm that it had after it came out of the chamber and that tiny amount was enough to touch the movement and stop it from working? After depressurizing, if the back springs back a bit, the movement can restart moving.
If the caseback deflected enough to touch anything on the movement, it would have just been the rotor since it would have deflected at the center. Water ingress into the movement would have stopped the balance wheel entirely and it obviously didn't suffer a catastrophic failure like the crystal imploding. It stopped because it wasn't wound before testing and ran out of power reserve. It had nothing to do with the testing pressure. You can see the second hand start back up as soon as it's placed on the table and it gets enough wind from rocking gently on the rounded stand and being handled to finish out the video running.
Please do more tests in the deep sea chamber.
Nice! A watch that can reliably tell me the time of my death as I sink towards the bottom of the ocean, while my body is getting crushed by the.relentless pressure.
hahah you guys are crazy but my kind of crazy , love these experiments
Should’ve shown the dent in back of the watch. Would’ve been cool to see
Great vid!

Make an important message in the bottle like: Lauri and anni were here. I am sure this wil be vital in the future
They are invited to submit personal messages for the next and final round of 20 bottles in 2022..
A given message in the bottle should be "Message in a bottle 5 000 000". In 500 years they will have a hard time figuring that out :)
Fabricate your own Deep Diver test. Fill **most** but not all of the internal volume with liquid or jello to avoid being an implosion bomb. The record is 186.3 bars. Then, entice an oceanographer for dropping the real thing (remembering the anchor and connecting line).
Wow that impressive.
