F10's flooding

Had a second F10 die on me a few weeks back, first one was all jacked up and flooded in baja. This one flooded the day before I had a competition and totally put me out of it for the next day of diving. they warrantied the first one and sent me the second brand new one which was less than 9 months old when it flooded the other week. I never opened the back of the watches, they both had factory seals on them. If they warranty this one again I don't know if I will continue to dive with it, I depend way too much on my watch when I'm out diving to have these keep flooding on me.
So if possible I'd say to avoid these things, nothing but problems for me, looking into getting an old D3 or a few super cheapo ones that I can buy a few of and toss em when they break one at a time

Re: F10's flooding

That sucks. My roommate has had good results with the Pyle watches. Older oceanic geo might work well for you too, the battery compartment is separated from the internal workings of the computer itself. Same goes for suunto I believe.
