Speedy & water

We all know that the Speedmaster is rugged enough for outer space but how far are you willing to your Speedy when it comes to water? Washing hands only, wear it while taking a shower, swimming in the pool,..?
Thanks & Cheers!

I wouldn't let mine go near water. Ever.

Thanks for the feedback

After posting I saw a very interesting graphic that illustrated depths according to Omega's recommendation that largely answered my question.
Guess I'll steer clear of water if possible.
Cheers!

I've been taking it in the shower for the past year and a half with no issues. I would also have no qualms taking it swimming
