I have not tested the limits, but according to the manual that came with the watch, it is water resistant up to 30 meters.

Well, just about nothing is considered "waterproof" anymore! Even watches in most cases are considered "water resistant" these days! That being said, I have already gotten mine wet and no problems.

I'm afraid I can't tell you, but all Garmin products are at least water resistant since they're used in every imaginable WX condition. I've checked product info and my quick start manual without finding the answer. I suggest going to Garmin.com/support and select manuals. Since this is meant to be solely a runners watch I would guess it my only be water resistant.

I phoned Timex and it's all waterproof (unless you press any buttons) but I forgot to ask them about chlorine effect. They did say the heart rate signal can't transmit to the watch while under water.When I wear it all day, I usually feel like my ribs got bruised, and I have it on it's loosest setting. I even took off the elastic, and just but the stiff part on my with sports tape (and it transmitted), but I still got that feeling. But I sit maybe 80% of the time I wear it so maybe that's a factor for the ribs pressing against something hard.

Hi, it is waterproof. It says it on the instructions and I also swam in it yesterday so it was submerged in water for long periods of time and still worked. However (and this might not apply to what you're asking) my transmitter (around the chest) kept losing signal so I need to figure out if there's something I need to do better to avoid that. But the watch itself worked just fine under the water.

No...... this device isn't water resistant in that sense. I ran w it in a light rain and the bezel had some difficulty,,, there is a Garmin that is water resistant, but not this one. Hope that helps.

I don't believe it is waterproof. It can probably handle getting splashed with water but not immersed.

E. Romero, I don't know if its water resistant like a watch. But I am confident that it will be reliable in the rain and other bad weather. I would not submerge it. But I do really like the laser sight. Its a great deal for the price I gave 3 of them for Christmas presents. Good luck.

Sweat resistant for sure. While training indoors I have soaked the watch, take a bath, and wash it and so on for a couple of months now without issues.As to the swimming pool, I´ve never tried it.

Yes, this model is water resistant and I do use it for swimming, from time to time. You will find a good review and plenty of interesting comments about this watch here: http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/11/garmin-forerunner-depth-review.html

I do not know if it is waterproof (I have not worn it in the pool or shower), but I have worn it in the rain on many, many runs, and have sweated all over it (sorry, not trying to be gross, just a fact of running) and I have never noticed any problems with it. I really recommend this unit as an inexpensive alternative to the other GPS watches out there.

I haven't take this into the water. But it's pretty cheap, so I doubt it would survive. I really bought it only because it was a cheap watch--not for the HRM function.

Given that the watch was primarily made for running and it water resistant... I wouldn't recommend swimming with it.

Because it runs off the nuclear cells in the watch and it come with a Warranty so if u do in to any issues with the watch they will take care of it for u. Btw I like with watch people who see it love it and so do I if I had the money id buy an other one for my self because I bought this as a gift for my best friend I hope this helps. It's also water proof and glows in the dark.

The watch is waterproof, but I would not swim in the pool with this watch as it is not accurate to the degree of a short 25 meter pool. I would also not advise to using this watch in the ocean as it is not the most solid piece of equipment. It is chinese made.
