Nanuq Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Ewwwwwwww FWIW, I have never had a watch freeze up, and I used to work on the north slope in the corrosion control group, outdoors, in wind chills frequently down to -150F or -170F. Never had a watch quit working... Mostly because you keep it under your coatsleeve! But thanks for the link! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defender110 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 get this watch just to make all the pam guys with their 48mm's jealous! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 There ya go!! I knew there was a good purpose for it! Looking more closely at the funky red case, it's pretty neat how they do the clamshell thing with the remote pushers. But still the crystal is exposed to heat loss? THAT just doesn't make sense.

Nightstroker Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Looks like the red clam shell keeps the SS case within a safe temperature range, regardless of how cold or hot the environment is. Since the crystal is attached to the case it all balances out....so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
