How is the Fifty Fathoms water resistance?

[johnlogan]

Do you shower or swim with yours?

Do you have one? I will test mine if you like. So far I have only been wearing it carefully and no where near water so no need to test.

I don't think what ever the results of mine are, have any relevance on any others though. For example, mine could be fine and the very next one from the same shop could leak like crazy. For this reason everyone says to have your watch water proof tested. The QC on these reps is just too iffy to take a chance.

Here's my noob v1... failing at 5 ATM. Passed lower pressure testing.

Its more like twenty fathoms for me -- I was hoping to get at least a league, but it just doesn't work that way ...

Thanks for the vid!!

In my case it's a minor leak. The crystal being repressed probably will solve it but I really don't have any intentions of ever taking that watch near water.

Mine holds up for ocean swimming i.e 1 ATM

I showered and swam in the sea several times. Works fine
