Today, one of my inexpensive "beaters" I purchased a while ago and tried to sell --twice, I think: SO&CO New York (SOCONY) Submariner homage, quartz powered with screw down case back and crown; and, yes, I've had it in the drink & passed with flying colors. It's one of several SOCONY watches I have & have been lucky with them all -- i.e. no major inherent problems with them but just one I created. I use this as one of my two (2) nighttime "reading" watches; the other one has the black dial & bezel & looks like a Submariner. Overall, a decent, inexpensive (under $50) daily wear. dave:
