Yes, I'm in the South.  In the North they might say, "I live in England and sometimes it doesn't rain." |

Shower here. Will it stand up to a sprinkle test? Lake Huron is only a ten mile drive. I could borrow a fishing pole and dunk it, I suppose.  |

I have some good news. I have just secured a toy depth gauge diver for a world diver challenge. It wasn't what I originally had in mind. But based on price and what I'm hoping everyone will do with it, I think it will be a lot of fun.  When it arrives we can get things started. |

I could borrow a fishing pole and dunk it, I suppose. ooooooo If the watch had a recorder to track depths maybe you could strap it to a brick to get it to sink on a fishing line and cast it into the lake (but iif the line broke  ) |

Yes it has a recorder past depths of 2. Or 3 meters. If it drowns they are $30+\- to replace. |

Maybe send it out with one of them and have them set it up with down-riggers. Prolly get 150' or more. |

Jezus, that's an ugly bit of gear right there... Not likely to be MIA, is it? MIA is One of the risks of a world timer. I didn't particularly want this one but it was best bang for buck on eBay at the moment-there are a few much more wearable colors out there but hey- it's to be worn with your Fluro pink board shorts and bad taste Hawaiian print t-shirt or your a wet suit and flippers so really?- a good looking dive watch??? I was considering the offering the ugly swatch and this Casio as a dual world watch challenge. The World Toy Diver-  The World Climber  Keep a tally of meters/feet dived and meters/feet climbed. Will anyone be interested in such a challenge over say 12 months?? |
