will it stand up to swimming in salt water?

Yes. It's engraved so nothing to wash away. It's also stainless steel so it won't rust.

I have not exposed this item to seawater so I cannot comment from experience. Stainless steel comes in many grades, some are more resistant to corrosion in seawater than others. There is no indication regarding the type of stainless used, so you are better off going with the brass or plastic offerings.

If it were a quick submersion I think it would repel the water and survive nicely, but not sure what would happen if it took a long soak. It's pretty sturdy and I am very pleased with it. I think you will love it!

It is water resistant, but I wouldn't recommend for a lot of swimming. Especially after a battery change

Resistant, absolutely. I've spent many rides in the rain with this decide. I would not recommend submerging it in water for any reason, however. It is not waterproof.

It is. The casing resists salt air corrosion. But, it functions just as well in fresh water too.

Yes, my daughter bought it specifically for the beach but has worn in in chlorine pools with no problem

I am not sure how well the metal will hold up to salt as corosion may be an issue. I believe they make a plastic case and it may well work better.

very durable, not sure if it would survive a river run, we only use it in our swimming pool.

I wouldn't bet on it. If you use it in water, put a plastic bag around the rings. There are rings you can buy that are water resistant. I would not take it swimming.

It's pretty protective. It can definitely withstand some heavy downpour but I wouldn't think it'd last very long fully submerged.

Yes it does in salt water but I would recommend wearing the lanyard around your neck at all times. I did not try in a pool but did try in salt water ocean.

No, it is waterproof, but i wouldn't recommend swimming with it. It will probably slip off, the elasic band wears out after awhile. I had to keep pulling it up after a month of wearing.

Water resistant maybe. I wouldn't submerge it oh expose it to excessive water.

The model I bought is water resistant. I proved on day after retrieving it out of San Francisco Bay. (btw, it floats too-)

yes. I used it all summer outdoors while life guarding and it stays on in the water. It is very thick, so it takes a while to rub it in (because of the zinc).

Yes, according to specifications...Sony is very good when it comes to water proof products...It has all the connectors cover with flaps to prevent water damage...I have never tried to submerge it in water but I am pretty sure it will survive...read some of the reviews out there.

Absolutely...of course i just bought mine..but the material is good quality. It cant be left in standing water, but it will retard moisture. It should all the dust out etc. I think it will be fine in several years.
