How to use the helium escape valve? (fig.2)
In its normal position (fig.2.1), the helium escape
valve is perfectly watertight thanks to the gaskets
During the decompression phase, unscrew the crown of the
valve in order to release the mechanism (fig.2.2). The valve is now
watertight from the outside. As the interior pressure becomes
greater than the exterior pressure, it pushes the gasket (A) out of
its seating, thus releasing the gas (fig.2.3). Once the pressure is
equali
sed, gasket (A) returns to its original position, pushed by the

times during the decompression phase. Once atmospheric
pressure is reached, screw down the crown of the valve (fig. 2.1).
Note: Even if the valve is unscrewed, we strongly recommend that
the valve remains screwed down whenever the watch is immersed
in water, the watch is still water-resistant to a relative pressure of

5 Bar (50 metres). However, complete water-resistance to the dial
depth can only be achieved with gasket (B) and the valve in the
screwed down position.
