: The FAQ page on TimeZone may answer at least
: part of your question, re Different
: materials expanding, contracting at
: different rates. See 4.3 under "Is it
: okay to wear my watch while I shower?"

Thanks Dell, I knew of that, but I dont think this is enough to tell people that the difference in inside and outside temperature is a danger, even if it's cold outside
But not to use the watch in the shower is a good advice anyway

I have never seen information saying something about the winter temperature on the Omega forum where I am a moderator, and would be very interested to know where Joey has his information is from. I do think this statement is a strong one
"can cause considerable damage to your water seals"
and I would be happy to know where he has that from

Cheers Jon
