Thank you for your message, (Just to explain the choice: it is a "field" watch not a diving watch, thus 30 m / no screw down crown)
(they are tested at 50m)
Just to reiterate my earlier comment, I'll agree that historically a field watch would probably have something like 30 meters water resistance, due to the (lack of) technology back then. But to me a field watch these days is an outdoors watch, capable of taking a beating or two. What I'm trying to say is that the watch is visually stunning, but personally I'd be missing the functionality to go with it.
Please don't take my comments as a criticism of the watch as a whole, but more of a (potential) consumers feedback. I think the watch looks absolutely stunning, and I'd also like to try the movement. I'm personally into more sturdy GADA-ish watches, and thus I'm saddened as your watch with some more sturdyness would be close to my dream watch.
Again: absolutely stunning watch, I'm really impressed.
