Spent yesterday at a pool party and had a blast. Lots of fun with chicken fights and plenty of water wrasslin... Anyway my buddy wears an Invicta Pro Diver in blue with the Miyota movement. when he jumped in I asked him how the Invicta was doing. good her replied. I kept on him about 3 or 4 times and I could tell he was gettin' a bit peeved. Long story short. We were out of the pool kickin' it and I look over at his wrist... fogged crystal in the Invictum. I didn't say a word... Turns out the crown was screwed down so why would it let moisture in being a 200m "Pro" diver? Oh yeah, Invictum!coyote2.gif

I didn't say a word... Well, as Corona Gorda (AKA Jimmy Sniffles, AKA, The Grifter) would say," well, you know...200 meters does not mean that it is water proof to 200 meters. You guys were just wrasslin' too hard! Yeah, that's it, you guys were wrasslin' with 300 meter intensity.........and I'm a registered gemologist...I took a course on TV!"

I'll offer this up Pax. I seem to remember from my diving days that one shouldn't crank down real hard on O-ring seals. I believe doing so can deform the O-ring. I believe snug, firm contact with the seal is best. Last edited on Sun Aug 17th, 2008 10:06 pm by Willieboy |

Mark just be careful in a steam room, high humidity and the fog. No telling what would happen to it then. :D
