Push-in crown in Luminox, are they really water proof?

Hi,
I'm getting the idea of a Luminox but I'm concerned the crown is a push-type rather than a screw-type kind of crown, so I wonder how water proof that kind of crown can really be..
I swim, bath kids, tend to wash my hands too often, etc..


I simply don't want to waste $350 in something that will let water in when I swim or shower.




I see their Marketing say something about Navy personnel and some other hype that I don't buy as they all say the same story...




Thanks
Gaspar

They use a double ring type seal (what ever that means)...mine has been water tight and it's been in some hairy swells in the ocean quite a bit. Plus lake activities, pool, you name it. I would not worry one bit : )

Also got to think about the model I have and many other models they carry. They are Navy Seal certified so you ought to be safe ;)
