Yes, unless you are diving to a rather deep depth. One atmosphere is 15 pounds per square inch (or PSI.) A 5 ATM watch should be resistant to water entrainment to a pressure of 15*5, or 75 PSI. That would correspond to a depth of approximately 150 feet, depending on whether you are in fresh or salt water. Watch out, though - many watches not designed for diving have leather or other types of bands that can be damaged by water, especially salt water. (Anything you wear in salt water should be thoroughly rinsed afterwards to get rid of sea salts.)
