Just make sure you don't take it all the way to the bottom... wouldn't want to risk it. Also small particles in the water could cause scratches so be careful.

Enjoy the pool!

Nice to see one of these actually in some sort of water. It's almost like it was 40 years ago and it is a tool watch again.

I went swimming in the sea whilst in Cartegena recently. As I was playing about and seeing who could dive down and touch the bottom I realized I still had my dssd on. I couldn't believe it. I will be taking it straight in for a service when I get back from my trip.

I agree! This watch is built for water and it is great in its element.

Awesome location! But why take it in for a service? The DSSD is built to get wet, it needs water!

Sorry Anakyn, I was being completely sarcastic. There are so many threads about "is it safe" I couldn't resist.

I took mine down to the heady depths of about 3.5 metres. Hopefully it coped with that :-)
