Can you swim with your Panera watch?

I just returned from 2 weeks in Bali and wore my Bi tempo gmt and took it to ATV'ing, river rafting and snokerrling in the lagoon and zero issues. In fact, I wear it more than I wear my sub.

Why would a watch tested to 100m not be ok for a dive to 100m?

The brave part of your post is swimming in Bali.
