Do you know what is understood as long exposure to saltwater?
I am going on holiday to the sea. Can I swim with my watch? I have Steel HR.
Thanks,

Magda

    I am actually using my Steel HR for swimming in the sea, but I'm making sure that it won't be exposed for a long period of time and most importantly, rinsing it with fresh water after the swimming.

    i just to swim with my steel hr in the sea during multiple holidays even for long period of time without problems, it should be fine, but keep in mind, that salt water is far more aggressive to metals and electronics

    in general you should not put non-marine electronics in the sea (not just for warranty)
