The kids and I were playing in the pool with our goggles this afternoon and I noticed something that only a WIS would. The date magnification reduces under water!

Perhaps a science WIS can shed some light. Hopefully I do not have a fake cyclops.... or fake water in my pool

Just to be sure (WISness no doubt) I compared the underwater magnification of a GMTIIc and SS Sub - relieved to say that the magnification reduced on both the Sub and the GMT!

However, I also noticed that the date magnification on the Sub appears ever so slightly stronger than on the GMT. On further closer inspection I also noted that the Sub's rehaut appears thicker/deeper compared to that of the GMT. Perhaps that and maybe a different thickness in crystal is the reason for the difference magnification. Curious to hear from those in the know.
