It is possible that due to the age of this Rolex that even if the bezel is fixed or replaced and the crystal is replaced, that this watch may still not be water resistant. Even if this watch can become water resistant, we still do not recommend wearing it in water including, but not limited to when swimming, bathing, soaking, showering, etc. as many daily life factors can contribute to a watch not being water resistant such as bumping, hitting or dropping a watch, accidentally damaging the crystal or bezel, or leaving the crown unscrewed near water.
