Can you swim while wearing it?

I sent a message to Spark People, and got a response within one day. They said it is waterproof. You can swim with it on. That it has gone through the wash by mistake, and is good.

Absolutely! It's the one biggest reason I have one. I wear mine in the pool all the time, for water aerobics and jogging in the pool.

I have not tried it swimming. However Mio says it does. Waring, do not push any of the buttons while swimming or water will get in and cause damage.

Yes, I wore mine in the pool & lake several times and it worked just fine. However, after I changed the battery in the HRM, I haven't worn it in the water.

No. You will be able to use the upcoming model during swims though up to 2 meters deep.

I have been wearing mine in the pool for close to a month now with no problems. I don't think you can dive in it, but it's ok for swimming. You definitely can wear it it the shower or bath too.

Haven't tried it but they said water resistant and washable. I highly doubt it. There aren't many in the market that let you swim and listen.

The GSI is probably water-resistant to a depth of several maters, so you likely wouldn't hurt it if you wore it while swimming as a watch. However, the heart rate monitor works on the basis of wireless transmission from the chest strap to the GSI. This is designed for transmission through air, not through water. I wouldn't risk it.

I've worn my hat while swimming. I didn't put my head/hat under the water but it did get wet but it dried off pretty quickly.

No you cannot wear this device under clothing......The weights are much too bulky.

It is water resistant, so you can run in the rain with it. However the owner's manual states that buttons should not be pushed when it is underwater. Other answers advise that this should not be used for swimming because water causes problems with GPS reception.

If u mean with rain yes,But don't let ur dog swim wearing it and expected to work .. :P I didn't try it that way coz I'm sure it won't work after that ^.^

No, it does not. You could wear it under your swim cap and have the running mode on. However, I do NOT recommend this watch. When training for my tri I used a regular swim watch and never tested this watch out in the water because I didn't think I needed to. Well, the day of the tri water got in the watch. It's not entirely waterproof. I've had the watch less than it year and it turns on and off (probably water damage). Bad buy.. Hope this helps!

I read on the website that it is just water resistant. They suggest that you take it off for swimming.

There is no way to cinch this strap to your wrist. It does not slip off while in the water. You can pull strap higher on your arm for a more snug fit. It WILL float if does slip off your wrist.

Yes you can. You can walk around with it on. Just note that it slides down with dress pants and wind pants on.
