Mike on a bike Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Never took in water use Gens for swimming etc , should be fine for washing hands and no watch should be worn in the shower, steam rooms that kinda stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapman57 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Should be fine but you should test first once you receive it. My last 3 tc subs have all passed tests for swimming and shower without issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I haven't broken any free diving records with one, but I have done a lot of laps with the v5 on my wrist. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vester71 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Test, but should be great in water. I swim with all mine - once they are sealed and tested of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Just was curious if any members had any good/bad experiences themselves. Here is the story for high-end diver replicas ... they are great for water, but the quality control at the factory can be bad. If the guy in China who assembles your watch leaves out 1 gasket by accident, it does not matter if your watch is supposed to be waterproof. If you pay for a good replica dive watch it CAN be waterproof; they are supposed to be waterproof .. but always check. It is not an expensive test, and the fix for a leaky watch is cheap too IF it is supposed to be waterproof. I swim in the ocean, in pools, and shower will all my diver replicas .. no problem .. but never trust it until you check it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputim Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I wear my v6 for swimming and showering without any problems. Thomas will definitely not forget to put in the gaskets but never trust reps from your td since there it could happen more frequently. But if you want to be 100% sure rather have it testes before your first dive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
