Title: Seawolf listing #300489558339

Check out way dude  checks water resistance on 300489558339. I e-mailed says he put watch in damp towel, then glass of water, then in POOL FOR ONE HOUR! What is he smoking? Not very good selling point in IMHO. Good luck and God bless but teachs me to read listings very carefully. P.S. He claims no moisture got inside watch,but he does not guarantee to that fact. I'm sorry but that is one of those that should start w/ "What on earth were you thinking.....?"

OMG!  :o

Can you say co-llec-ti-ble? I love the people that contact me and want to go diving in a 40+ year old watch. HUH??? When Casio makes a perfectly good $100 diving watch?

What is even more funny, this guys currently has 4 people interested in it and it is almost at $150 with 6 days to go.  ::)  I would not even want this for parts now.

You mean that is not a legitimate way to properly water test a watch?? ??? Darn, how am I supposed to do it now??

 :P :P   holy crap-this IS unbelieveable. i am sure he removed the back to check, yeah right!!the dial wasnt under water so he figures it passed the test. i have been tying a string on mine and doing the old toilet flush test. gee, i guess i better stop that. i love the mention of doesnt need batteries, self winding--the sure sign of a real watch expert!!

Wonder what the guy would have done if thing was turned into a  mini-aquarium? Listed it  as such under  "Sea-Wolf Aquarium" for your "Sea Monkeys"!!!!!I digress, I was a bidder, but I cancelled under "seller changed desription". Live and learn!
