Is this watch water resistant/proof-if so, to what water depth.

Answer from Verizon Customer Support8 days

The Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM and an IP68 rating. This means it's suitable for swimming and can withstand being submerged in up to 50 meters (5 atmospheres) of water for a limited time. It also has an IP68 rating, indicating protection against dust and water immersion. Here's a more detailed breakdown: 5 ATM: This rating means the watch can withstand the pressure of water up to 50 meters deep. It's suitable for swimming and shallow water activities. IP68: This rating means the watch is protected against dust and can be submerged in fresh water up to 1.5 meters deep for up to 30 minutes. MIL-STD-810H Compliant: The watch also meets military-grade standards for durability, meaning it can withstand extreme temperatures, blowing sand, and other environmental stressors. Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 (Classic) In a First Test While the Galaxy Watch8 Classic is water-resistant, it's not recommended for diving or high-pressure water activities. It's also important to rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water or chlorine, and to dry it thoroughly to maintain its water resistance. ~Jorge
