Wouldn't water get past perished gaskets without all this swimming and springboard diving misinfo?
A Rolex watch is rated to the depth stated for that model plus a safety margin when serviced and tested by a RSC.
As for the 100m rating for Omega meaning it can just be submersed in water?
Well that may be for Omegas but not for Rolex watches.

The safety margin is an ISO standard/rule (+25% of the rated depth) but this is never checked during service, watches are tested at the rated depth. Same goes for every other brand, as long as it's an ISO certified dive watch.
