- Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Automatic 40mm good for swimming?
- Yes. It is rated to 300 m with a screw-down crown and caseback, so swimming and snorkeling are well within its limits. Rinse it with fresh water after saltwater use.
- How does the 40 mm version compare with the 43 mm Seastar?
- The 40 mm has the same dive-watch specs in a smaller, lighter case that suits more wrists. The 43 mm offers more wrist presence but can feel oversized on smaller arms.
- How long is the power reserve?
- Up to 80 hours when fully wound, thanks to the Powermatic 80 movement. That means it can sit unused for about three days and still keep running.
- Can I change the bracelet?
- Yes. The bracelet has quick-release spring bars, so you can swap it for a strap without tools. It takes standard 20 mm straps.
- Does it have a sapphire crystal?
- Yes, with an antireflective coating. Sapphire is far more scratch-resistant than the mineral glass used on cheaper divers.
- Is it a true dive watch?
- It has the essentials: 300 m rating, screw-down crown, rotating bezel and luminous markers. It is not ISO 6425 certified like some dedicated tool divers, but it covers recreational diving.
