    Currently, NO watches are -legally- allowed to be sold in the US
    with the "waterproof" designation. Even $10,000 rolex divers watches
    aren't sealed well enough for the FTC to allow that designation.
    Certainly nothing less than 15 bar water resistance should even be
    considered as reasonably water resistant, and these usually start at
    a couple of hundred dollars.
