Icon5 Other question?

Hi to all!

If you are planning to go deeper in the water, you need to adjust the crown of the watch tighter?


Any comments?

No. Tighten finger tight until it stops. Nothing more is needed.

I tighten it until it stops turning.

This is regardless of whether I'm getting in the water or not.
