just out of warranty is right about the time that they break! haha. I hope not. I think I should keep this thing out of the water. years ago I bought a diving calculator and the thing was huge and had a super durable cover on it with multiple layers of O-rings. That was properly waterproof. I think it might be just a little bit silly of me to think that something so cheap as my watch is going to be able to withstand what I put it through.
