I have a Seiko Divers watch (automatic)(660ft). I know that automatics are more suseptable to shock. Will the ultrasonic waves damage the interior?

I wish I knew the right answer, because of how sensitive watch parts are, I would rather you ask a watch jeweler. I do use it for sensitive jewelry pieces.

I put my Raymond Veil watch that I have owned for 15 years in the unit and went through the normal 3 minutes of pulsation. I did not have any problems. Yes it was a risk as the watch is very expensive but it worked out just fine and the watch looked great after I cleaned it. Raymond Veil is water proof for normal fall in the pool 10-15 feet so your watch should be fine.

This question is best addressed with the watch maker I think. At least that is what I would do.

Mom is somewhat hearing impaired and wears hearing aids. If she is wearing the watch on her wrist, she can definitely hear the alarm go off. But sometimes she just puts the watch in her pocket. In that case, most of the time she does not hear the alarm. I can hear it from across the room when it is in her pocket, but she can't. I think the alarm is fairly loud but not super loud. As far as I know, it does not have a vibrate feature.

This is my 3rd heart rate monitor and the 3rd one that says it's NOT to be used swimming. The watch is fine, provided you don't press any buttons while submerged but I haven't found a heart rate monitor strap that's OK to swim in. I would guess that higher end HRM watches & straps (>$100) are fine for swimming.

I'd worry about hearing damage, I'm always turning the metronome down myself for this reason. The "tick" is pretty sharp sounding. I'd recommend a clock with a soft ticking sound.I have the Seiko metronome which has a volume wheel on the side, not all of them do.

It is as loud as a standard watch. If was worn with a lanyard maybe as it would be close. it is easy to operate. But not super loud.

It is a little loud, but I wouldn't consider it a concern. If you use alloy pellets, they could break the speed of sound and create sonic boom. Use the heavier pellets and it isn't that bad.

The flashlight is sold with 'waterproof' and 'floating'.. From past experience this means casual or momentary exposure or contact with water. Diving gear, including flashlights or cameras, that has been tested under 'SO MANY ATMOSPHERES OF PRESSURE' will provide a depth the item will remain "waterproof' to or will provide a depth over time <ie will be waterproof at 300feet/ meters for 2hours or whatever. Would suggest that you contact the manufacturer on whether they have done testing or have certification <often by independent testing labs, like Pittsburg Testing Lab, places like UL or FM are only concerned with SAFETY> The flashlight is sold with 'waterproof' and 'floating'..

I phoned Timex and it's all waterproof (unless you press any buttons) but I forgot to ask them about chlorine effect. They did say the heart rate signal can't transmit to the watch while under water.When I wear it all day, I usually feel like my ribs got bruised, and I have it on it's loosest setting. I even took off the elastic, and just but the stiff part on my with sports tape (and it transmitted), but I still got that feeling. But I sit maybe 80% of the time I wear it so maybe that's a factor for the ribs pressing against something hard.

I'm sorry I don't have the expertise to answer that question, but any competent jeweler should be able to tell you. I know there are certain stones that are not recommended to be used in an ultrasonic cleaner, and especially costume jewelry where the stones are held in place with an adhesive do not fair well ( personal experience) but well mounted stones should not be a problem. When in doubt, a professional jeweler should be consulted.

Yes, and yes, it is strong enough to wake you up. (at least for me it is) I imagine that wrist is generally sensitive enough to feel the vibration from the watch.

I'm not sure. I just set the time and ran with it... I'm thinking it might be the stopwatch and the other might me the depth in meters when diving. Not sure tho just a guess

All of the documentation I have found online states water resistant.Which usually means as long as you aren't diving with it you should be ok. My concern though would be the optical sensor on the back used for measuring heart rate. I personally would not swim with it on.

Unlike the LifeProof brand case, this case is only rated for brief and shallow submersion. The reason I went with this case over the LifeProof was the numerous complaints that the sound quality of that case was terrible. Even with the LifeProof you would only be good for 6ft for an hour. If you really are looking to go scuba diving with your phone, I would recommend a dedicated scuba case. They are a bit pricey but are good down to over 100ft and offer the option of adding light filters you will want for quality underwater photos.

No, it shouldn't. The snuza is only set off if there is no movement for a length of time; it's not sound sensitive. If your worried about being able to hear it if there are other noises I would say that would depend. It is a pretty loud alarm which you should have no trouble hearing.

I swam with mine in a lap pool. Never leaked but it is reall bulky and you can feel it holding you back on your wrist. when swimming, I used a smaller hr monitor watch for swim because that was all I needed and it wasn't getting in the way.

The belt monitor is water resistant from the factory according to the manual; however once the battery has been changed new seals have to be installed for the monitor to maintain its water resistant qualities. The manual is sort of iffy in terms of it being water proof. In terms of swimming and having the monitor transmit heart rate information, it won't transmit under water and the instructions plainly states that. I think a monitor has to be analogue to transmit cardio info, this is digital. You can download the manual by googling Timex Men's T5K736 Zone Trainer Digital
