I believe it's rated to 300 snow flakes. Be careful. Too many and you're done.

I know, it's really bad this year. My brother lives in CA. I was hiking through smoke from the rim fire in the Sierra Nevada a few months ago. Hopefully you guys get some rain soon.

Wore my ExpII 216570 shoveling snow today and it did well. No issues. :D

Wish we could give CA all our excess snow from the east coast.

Can snow scratch the crystal? Just realized I was wearing my Exp I while shoveling. Also while having a glass of wine. Glad I've got such a rugged watch.
