moon watch question

I am wondering and i would like to ask the owners of the classic moonwatch, that it is for 30metres depth, if it's able to be washed? or you dont recommend it!

Yes but make sure you pressure test annually

Wash away, the speedy is built pretty tough and can take a good scrub down. It went to the moon so I sure it can handle your shower and bath action.

You can even swim with it and do some scuba IMHO.

I second that.

If its been pressure tested, wash away. Just be careful not to push either of the buttons while you do it.

I would feel comfortable washing my hands and such but as for swimming and aquatic activities I suggest a diver watch.
