Kjøpte meg en tropic fra Zuludiver, som jeg syns passer meget bra til klokka. Hvilken gummi bruker folk til Seamasterne sine? Er det noen som har den (for min del) veldig spesielle/sjeldent sette double ridge gummien med den drøyt svære claspen? Jeg syns den ser veldig organisk/biologisk styggpen ut, og klarer ikke å bestemme meg for om jeg liker den. Hadde vært kult å se om noen av dere bruker den!

Seiko Prospex 1000m bruker samme teknologi som Ploprof-600 : en L pakning som går rundt og under krystallen og en "monocoque" kasse uten åpning bak.
Det gjør at klokken er fullstendig tett og trenger ikke He ventile.
Som vi vet, Rolex satset (med Doxa) på He ventile teknologien.
"Today, we have the successor of the Seamaster 600 in the form of the modern 1200m PloProf although this doesn’t use the innovative design of the original. The original Seamaster 1000 and Seamaster 600 models used a crystal which was supported by a ring around the movement. As the pressure increased, it compressed the ring until, without breaking the seal, the hands were stopped by the crystal. This occurred at 1,370m for the Seamaster 600 but, to the best of my knowledge, nobody has put their Seamaster 1000 forward for a crush test, so we don’t know if it would fare any better."
"The reasons for COMEX’s change from Omega to Rolex have been discussed at length and several hypotheses have surfaced. Firstly, there was the immense cost of Omega’s super-divers before considering that the 1000 series movements in both models were unreliable. Then, whilst brilliantly engineered, the airtight case trapped moist air after a time change in a diving bell, thus causing dial and movement degradation. The answer, as revealed by Jake Ehrlich, editor of Jake’s Rolex World, was that Rolex needed to get their Sea-Dweller in front of a bigger audience of professional divers. Inevitably, a specialist product like it had little appeal to the average buyer.
Det vet jeg ikke hvordan det kan skje hvis kassen er fullstendig tett (over 130 ATM trykk).
Klokken er ikke fullstendig tett. Heliums molekyler er mindre og trenger seg forbi pakningene. Det er forskjell på hydrostatisk differential trykk i vann og inni en dykkerklokke med trimix gass.
Problemet skjer i trykk kammeret.
Når He trenger seg inn i klokken, bygger seg trykket inni kassen og glasset popper ut når kammerets trykket senker seg.
Det skjer ikke med Ploprof eller Seiko sin 1000m: fordi He trenger seg ikke inn i kassen.
"These underwater habitats were pressurized living quarters for divers, providing a mix of breathing gas composed mainly of oxygen, nitrogen, and helium. The Sealabs included a sleeping area, bathroom, and living area and ensured that divers could spend multiple days at a time underwater performing all necessary tasks without having to make time-consuming, dangerous ascents on a regular basis."
"During ascents in diving chambers, it was noted that from time to time the crystal from one of the divers’ watches would pop off with a loud bang.
This was attributed to helium buildup in the case, which makes its way in via diffusion by penetrating the rubber gaskets.
As the diver ascends in the chamber, the gas pressure outside of the watch decreases, with the pressure inside of the watch remaining higher. Once the difference is too great, the pressure buildup causes the crystal to pop off the watch because crystals were generally simply friction fitted on dive watches of the 1960s."

Deeper, Further, Faster: Why Some Dive Watches Have Helium Escape Valves - Reprise - Quill & Pad
Humans have long had a fascination with the depths of the ocean, striving to go ever deeper, ever further, and ever faster by pushing the limits of the human body, technology, and advancing modern science. But like all things, we are often faced with limits. Enter the helium escape valve.quillandpad.com
Kan du forklare meg hvorfor He ikke slipper forbi denne "L-pakningen" du referer til i trykkammer med trimix gass?
Hvorfor utviklet Omega He-ventil i ettertid da hvis det stemmer det som kildene du refererer til stemmer?
Og hvorfor, hold på hatten, kom ingen på å bare skru ut kronen for å unngå at glasset poppet ut?
