Using Gear Sport in sea salt water?

[MichaelGG]

Hello,

Is Gear Sport safe for use in sea salt water? Mediterranean or Red Sea.
From my mechanical watches past I remember recommendation to put a watch in a fresh water after sea bathing, to remove salt.
Is it the same for Gear Sport?

Thanks!

Hmmmm.

You could try...
But maybe look at this, about Quality... Gear S3:

Only as hint.

So at your own risk to test your SM-R600 in salt water...

Best Regards

Yes reading all the reviews that mention it it should be safe to use in sea water, probably worth rinsing off with fresh water afterwards though.

The sport was made with saltwater in mind. It is the only Gear watch that claims to be protected from it, so you should be fine.
