Many people buy water proof watching, thinking that they will stay water proof forever.  After a year goes by, they will probably loose their touch of being "water proof".  I have had a Nike watch now for a bout a year.  It still functions properly, the dials telling the correct time but, sometimes the screen gets a little foggy.  I have been taking showers with it for the last year, but hey if its water proof you should be allowed to.  I have gone in oceans in the summer time, many pools and some many others including my shower.  It has survived.  I wanted to know, even though it says "water proof", how long is it really going to last?  Sometimes it not 100% water proof, but this watch was.  I believe water proof products, especially watches, only last about a year until you have to buy a new one.  They can only remain water proof for so long.  It stinks, but thats how they get you to buy their new products next year.  The system of stores making money on these products are so rigged, that they have it down to a science.  They make money off of us so easily and we cannot do a single thing about it.  Anyway water proof watches work most of the time for me and last about a year but I wish they lasted much longer.  If you go out and but a water proof watch, get Nike, their awesome!
