i have 2 offshore watches, and never been a problem swimming/snoggling with it both in pool and in ocean with strong waves. But i have not tried with extreme activity yet, IMO it is rough enough to bear sport acitivities.

KlausM Skrev:Sorry, no tests or reviews but they are hardly waterproof at 100/120m. I really doubt they could stand much abuse compared to the more diver like IWC's or Rolex'es. Both Pateks mentioned have a see through casebacks (ref's 5167 and 5711).

Magnum Skrev:I once read, on timezone i think, a man who had been river rafting with his Nautilus jumbo, and there had been no problems.

These high-end sportwatches are not sportswatches like a Submariner etc, the movements are much to delicate, but I think they can with stand a lot- but not a whole lot.
