Some details to keep in mind. For the most part, if a watch does not have a water resistance 100 meters or more, I would look to avoid water altogether. If it’s rated at 100 meters, it should be OK in the shower, or for a quick dip in the pool. If it comes with a leather band, though, I wouldn’t risk it. Leather and water just don’t go together.
