watch makers did this for ages still do:
* water resistant: if you get a drop of water on the seal and don't wipe it off the electronics will fry
* water proof to 10 feet: if you take a shower with your watch on, it will get ruined maybe not the first time but just after warrantee surely. there isn't a chance in hell the warrantee will be honored.
