Is the watch waterproof?

Water Resistance of 50 Meters according to the description. Water Resistance does NOT equal waterproof. Getting it wet was not a problem for me, I have swam with it on with no issues.

Don't know, if you mean for like underwater, I'd guess no but if you just mean exposed to water here and there, it seems pretty sturdy

Yes, it is waterproof, and it will get a heart rate in a pool using the provided chest strap. It does not have a GPS.

I phoned Timex and it's all waterproof (unless you press any buttons) but I forgot to ask them about chlorine effect. They did say the heart rate signal can't transmit to the watch while under water.When I wear it all day, I usually feel like my ribs got bruised, and I have it on it's loosest setting. I even took off the elastic, and just but the stiff part on my with sports tape (and it transmitted), but I still got that feeling. But I sit maybe 80% of the time I wear it so maybe that's a factor for the ribs pressing against something hard.

I'm not sure, the hr monitor has a text that says waterproof for 30 meters depth, but I have not tried. Last weekend I was diving but my watch, but under water the buttoms do not response. It begin to run two days after.

As far as the watch being waterproof...Timex says it is 50- meter water resistance... As far as the band they give you a 800 number in case you need a replacement.... Hope this helps

No this is not water resistant for swimming. For a water resistan Garmin you need the Garmin Swim, 310xt or the 910xt. The other watches are water resistant against rainy runs.

This watch would probably not be best for lap swimming. It probably would not be accurate since it isn't set up that way. In terms of being waterproof, I would say its water resistant at best.

I have not tested the limits, but according to the manual that came with the watch, it is water resistant up to 30 meters.

Yes you can, but better don't. Basis does not recommend swimming with it because of the damage a dive can cause to the watch and band. If you don't dive swimming with it is apparently no problem.

TYes, swimmers can use the watch in the pool and sea but there are some care steps you need to complete specially when use it in the sea...

Hi Kelly, I have not used this watch/chest strap in the pool. When I was researching this watch, other people mentioned that it is water resistant but will not perform under water. Hope that helps.Thank you,Sarah

No. It is not good for swimming. Even running it seems that the sweet enters the watch.
