Waterproof Watch with Durable Crystal? Does one exist?

Does anyone know of a waterproof watch with a crystal that doesn't crack the first time you hit a lane line? I have gone through enough "waterproof" watches in the last 2 years to fill a landfill.

  • If you can't push the buttons in the water, wearing a watch in the water seems pointless. I like to use the watch when no pace clock is available for intervals or to tell time when there is no clock... I totally agree!!!! I keep taking them back to the store when this happens. The 3rd time I took one back the store manager told me I could wear it in the pool but NOT push the buttons. At this point I asked for my money back. I think it's an example of how cheaply things are made these days. I used to use my casio and Ironman watches for at least a couple years and never a leak!
