Well I'm at least as sorry as you are!
From your reference:
> These vagueries have since been superseded by ISO 22810:2010, in which "any watch on the market sold as water-resistant must satisfy ISO 22810 – regardless of the brand."
Following the reference, we get this:
> For example, if a watch is said to be “water resistant” to 30 meters (100 feet), this means that for all aquatic activities down to a depth of 30 meters, the watch case should not leak. The manufacturer of a water-resistant watch may offer ratings to help consumers determine the sort of environment the watch can handle.

Yours is a very common misconception though!
Seikos were always built to this standard, for the record. Since 2010, any watch marked water-resistant meets it, at least if they want to sell in Europe, but I repeat myself.
