I thought it was meant to be water resistant to 100m...

Just in case you didn't know, 100m rating basically means you can do some light swimming or snorkelling in it but should avoid too much diving in or hanging out on the bottom of the pool.

Definitely should stand up to normal day to day lockdown life without steaming up though!

Do you think there's a chance you ever set the time and didn't screw the crown back down tightly?

On this subject.... do people remove watches to shower?

Read that the Speedmaster (50meter water resistance) won’t survive a regular shower... seems strange when it can get to the moon... although I guess the moon isn’t wet.

I think the issue is the pushers aren't screw down in th speedy.

I remove watches but only because you can't wash your wrist without doing so.

Yeah. Mainly what Stonehedge said but also I don't think heat/steam is good for rubber gaskets in the long run.
