Help Waterproof

[Unforgiven]

Does anyone know if this will be waterproof?

I need to replace my $30 Mickey Mouse watch (seriously, I bought it in Main Street USA in Disneyworld ) as it isn't keep time reliably anymore. I wan't to get a smart watch, well, because its a smartwatch.

Anyway, I'm not one that likes to worry about taking my watch off when going about my daily routine. I'm not expecting to go scuba diving with it, but will it take to normal daily activities like washing dishes or taking a shower. Maybe a dip in the pool if it ever friqqin' thaws out here in New England.

It is water resistant!*

(from their "Design Story" video)

No clue to what level it will be resistant though. If it's like the other Android Wear devices, I would guess that splashes from washing hands are probably fine, but submersion is a no-no. For that, you need a Pebble. (I snorkled with mine last summer without any issues at all - aside from the typical watch-tanline).

Unless there is a USB port, I don't see any reason for it not to be immersable.

Microphone and some of the sensors could perhaps cause issues there?

Timex has been doing it for years with IronMan watches.

Well it does look like some of the other AW watches are tested to the IP67 standard, which specifies water up to 1m immersion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_Code

So it would probably be fine for your uses, except perhaps the swimming.
