wombat247 Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 As always, Andrew is great to deal with. I received the watch in just a few days after ordering it. I went swimming with it all weekend without a hitch. Kudos, Andrew!
hiker01 Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Good for you! Now, thats the way to test for water resistance!
jdavis Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 You are a brave man. Indeed he is! Particularly, since the GMT isn't a diver's watch and lacks the gaskets of the triple lock crowns used on the Sub and Sea Dweller.
docblackrock Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Particularly, since the GMT isn't a diver's watch and lacks the gaskets of the triple lock crowns used on the Sub and Sea Dweller. No it doesn't. Triplock crown and tube in this new model.
jdavis Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 No it doesn't. Triplock crown and tube in this new model. Doc, you are correct. My bad. The pre-ceramic GMTs used the same crown as the Datejust while the 2008 model does use the 7mm triple lock crown. Regardless, without a pressure test, Wombat took a chance swimming with his watch.
lanikai Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 I don't play the crap table either... the misaligned crystal bothers me.. mine is being reset before the AR mag goes on it.. The mag should be coming back soon... from chiefs last run..
rogerthat Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 I have taken my Asian IHS for a dip with so far good results and will be in the pool a good deal next week. My crystal was properly pressed backin evenly though before I did this, of course. Cheers, M
