An everyday watch rated to 200 atmospheres is NOT generally enough! You want a watch that is rated to dive with. The difference is in the seals on the crown, and controls. My WR200 citizen is fine in the pool, and likely would be fine to 33'.
My now sold Citizen Aqualand was also rated to 200 atmos, but it was designed to dive, and had the necessary seals on the controls. That was one fine watch BTW, I often regret selling it, but it was large for day to day use.
Anyone remember when a dive watch meant it had a one-way bezel? And it was actually used as a bottom timer?
