A VIIB with full hull integrity should be able to go down to about 220m Anything more than that though and its going to crush. VIIC's are better they can stretch to a good 250m with full hull integrity, and the VIIC/41... hoo! Off the dial baby!
As Keelbuster says the lights will flicker and you will hear some very strange noises. If this happens, press E once for a blast of compressed air and hit ahead flank to reduce your depth as fast as you can.

God will not reload the game when you get killed in real life
. So I guess real sailors were very cautious about going deeper than test depth.
Once I tested VIIB and it could go only about ~30m below red line, then the sub was slowly getting damaged. Anyway, if you need to go deeper than green, you are doing something wrong.
I would say also DCs are much more devastating in high depth, due to the pressure on the hull. Most dangerous DCs are than explode below your boat.
