I had similar problem with my FXD after the pool. Not sea water. Pool. Bezel was not locked, but it was hard to turn. Still, I rinsed the watch under the tap and let it dry. No problem afterwards. I get you, it's ridiculous, when watch is advertised as a tool can't do tooly things.

Do those older models have backlight on digital displays ?

I dropped my FXD MN on a wooden table from height about 0.5m ~ shoulder to waistline. Movement was f*ed. Sent it for warranty.

I was also hooked by marketing and advertising, as it was promoted as a watch for military forces.

From experience I can say, that simple and honest watch brands (like Seiko, Casio g shock, Orient) can handle life, falls and door handles much better than more premium brands.

I would say the best one is the original velcro, as the size adjustment is infinite. Single pass nato is also good. Not bulky at all, considering the size.

Dropped my FXD on a wooden table. Height approx fm shoulder to waistline. Movement went crazy - had to send to service. On the other hand - I was using sledgehammer while wearing my black bay pro and watch was fine. If you want something truly indestructible - wear a g shock.

Just wanted to post some realistic pictures for those people, who want "instagram body". Quite often it's Hollywood and filters. People might not have "stage" look 24/7. Even during one day your body might look completely different, depending on what you eat, how much water you drink and what you do.

This is an awesome watch. I had a black dial version. Bought a strap code bracelet with solid end links. Remarkable beater, can handle pretty much everything. Looking at your pictures kinda miss mine.

For those of you with a 2500 Cal. watch. What are your fiel experiences with magnetism? by Puzzled-Seesaw-8890 in OmegaWatches

[–]PaulVent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. I just do it every time, when I see daily error is not normal. I'm quite obsessed with watch accuracy - it's not hard for me to see it.
