Cautious as you wanna be
In Response To: Getting your Heuer wet.. ()

Dear Stewart I've pondered the same subject quite a few times myself and come to the same conclusions as Mark.
Still from time to time for a quiet walk on a hill or in the country I do like to bring my 510.500 or Viceroy - even in the heavy rain.
No issues (so far) with them, but just to make sure I also bought a modern real toolwatch such as the Sinn 756 - and I can even bathe with it if I want :-)!
Cheers,
Fabrizio
