·This is just a thought but 1) standards change over time, perhaps the requirements to state 200ft were less strict 60 years ago, and 2) if properly serviced and tested a modern speedy’s depth rating is accurate. Ie it isn’t 50m for splash proof as many cheaper watches indicate, it’s actually resistant to 50m depth (which obviously isn’t far off 200ft)

·Just don’t wear it while:
Drinking a Kale smoothie
Reviewing your tax return from the previous year
Changing the wiper fluid in your car
Trying on 100% wool pants
Peeling an avocado
Centering a piece of paper on a copying machine
Apologies for my abbreviated list; I’m certain there’s a big one I’m missing….

·Thank you, SpdMastr.
What do anti water speedy people say about those pics?
It's also nice that a handful of the Apollo astronaughts are still alive.

·Y'all do realize that 50 m = 164 feet, right? The add copy simply rounded up to 200.

Can Omega/you prove they rounded it up?
And if they did, does it drastically leak at those diffrences?
Unless you're being sarcastic?

·Wow. Guess you believe all ad copy as gospel truth, eh? Or maybe Omega is conspiring to keep us from swimming an extra 11m deeper with our watches?
Not being sarcastic, just realistic.

·Dude…my wife and I were on a motorcycle vacation and she called all the shots…I was lucky that she granted my one request which was to ride our motorcycles to the original Hooters. Also, I have a hard time remembering where people are located…if I had remembered that you are in the area, I should have touched base and requested that you meet us at the original Hooters…my bad, sir.
Hah I'm just messing with you. Of course you don't know where I live, nor do I expect you to.
However....don't let it happen again! 😉

According to @Evitzee riding the NYC subway should be on the list as well.

We are rapidly approaching the point where it will be deemed unsuitable to ever wear a Speedmaster. Just keep them locked up in a safe deposit box and only wear them while you visit them in the vault. Safety uber alles!
