Icon10 DeepSea in the shower...

Will my DSSD be OK in the shower? What if I have hard water?

What about when I am washing my car?

What if it rains and I have on a short sleeve shirt?

What if I walk through a rainbow?






















Sorry, it has been 'Beer-Thirty' here for a bit, and in light of some recent....umm...questions, I figured, I'd ask!

If you are that scared then just return the watch ....
This watch is designed to take ocean saltwater which is extremely corrosive ....I bet you the water coming out of your faucets is major SISSY when compared to saltwater...

If in the shower,as long as you use mild soap it'll be fine!!! If hard water,use a soft towel!!!
When washing the car,be carefull as it will scratch the paint on the car!!!(the only caution there!!!)
If it rains while wearing a short sleeve shirt,RUN to safety!!!
If you walk through a rainbow,Congratulations,go to the end and collect your pot of gold!!!
Hope that helps Greg!!!

Come on dude....the guy is drunk.

Water shower is just as dangerous as saltwater....this is an expensive watch...

I would be more scared being in a hot tub with the DSSD, as it may not handle the hot water....


Walk through a rainbow, you might come out the other side liking something you never thought you would.....

I've been scared of the tri-fecta... Direct sunlight at high noon, reflecting off JJ's dome

I hope you kept the stickers on the watch because that can reflect some of the water that might get into the movement....

Not the RTFT award, you didn't, ya window-licker!

At least you didn't try to give me advice, like "Please, for G-d's sake, STAY AWAY FROM RAINBOWS!!!"
