Just wondering is it okay to make pressure test for dive computer at ordinary watch service? Just don't know - is it safe for depth sensors to be under pressure out of water? By the way, do dive computers switch to "dive" mode under pressure or only after contacting with water?
 
Yes, normally having a pressure sensor in the dry is ok. Some computers use pressure, some have water contacts. Depends on brand.

The turning on of a dive computer is quite complex.
