An Apple Watch goes to the beach<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p class="intro">Turns out, the Apple Watch is pretty water-resistant—as long as you take care to clean it.</p> <p>
Craig Hockenberry (of
Iconfactory and CHOCKLOCK fame) is a fairly avid swimmer, and has been toting his water-resistant Apple Watch to the beach over the past few months.</p>
<p>I suspect that the watch's water resistance has been undersold by Apple just like battery life: it's better to under-promise and over-deliver. Still, it's a personal decision on whether you want to ignore Apple's recommendation. You're not likely to get much sympathy at any subsequent trips to the Genius Bar.</p>
<p>He wrote a great piece on the Apple Watch's water resistance in the real world, chock full of interesting scientific bits about the Watch's aluminum, glass, and rubber construction; important tips about cleaning the casing, and his frustrations over capacitative touch.</p> <p><a href='

I don't know if Hockenberry's article will convince my dad to change his mind and take the plunge, but it's a good read, nonetheless.</p> <p><strong>Source:</strong>
