 Skipdawg, at last someone with a similar view-point to mine! "Does this work, or have I lost my mind"...  For me, the two propositions being questioned, effectivness OR mild insanity, would not be mutually exclusive.

Do we have a thread that discusses the whole WR question in a rational and informed way? I know the bit about 200 metres WR doesn't mean you can actually go down 200 metres, but surely some nominal 200 metres WR watches we see are just not up to diving standard by their general design and manufacture.  Water reistance cannot be all, surely? At the other end of the scale, I saw recently a 3 ATM "diver's" watch.  Sure, on the web, but some suckers are going to buy them, and won't understand they may not even perform in mildly driven rain.  Anyone for puddle-diving?

So that thread: please do we have one?
