How are you going to test to your required 550bar if the pump is limited to 500bar ? J |
| John Stevenson:
I think by the time you get down to 4,900 metres the last thing you will be doing is looking at your watch. |

That was my reaction, John. 3 miles or so down is definitely Davy Jones's locker. I think Bry works on other people's watches, so seems to have been lucky enough to tap into a rich vein of folk with more money than sense! I'd be tempted toward fraud, sticking with a 330bar chamber and issuing a guarantee that if the watch failed before it reached 4,900 metres, it would be replaced. Claims should be infrequent. And |

Hi there, I'd limit the hydraulic pump to 500 or 550Bar as the machine only needs to test down to 4,900metres maximum. Just thought I'd build a pressure tester at the moment as no one else offers a pressure chamber for testing the Latest Rolex Deepsea marvel of Swiss engineering:- Great article:- http://www.allankuefer.com/en-rolex-deep-sea-v-series-review.html Looks a lovely watch not that I can afford a Rolex these days! :( |

I have to ask this... what the hell for?... given that he only way this could ever be exposed to pressures even a small fraction of that are on a very very long line? |
