Thanks guys for the reassurance, I find the omega 'certified to such and such meteres deep' just a bit deceiving.
Not deceiving at all! Read dsio's post again where he says "water resistant when the pressure test was carried out, it makes no guarantees about the future!" These tests are static tests. The same watch in the same tank being thrashed around may no longer be water resistant! Water resistant until something deteriorates, like the crown, case tube, pusher seals, crystal, case back gasket, etc. You have received a lot of good advice in this thread. I find it very difficult to understand why you are having difficulty grasping what you are told. Go ahead! Ignore the advice and wear it in water. It may take a day, a week, a month, a year, or several years before it leaks. Then come back and tell us we were right!
