I know nothing about mechanical or structural engineering, but it's pretty clear that you're going to have to do more to seal a big thin box against pressure than you will to a small thick box. A camera or flashlight is a much bigger, thinner box than a watch. That's why I didn't think those were very relevant examples here.
