My Armitron watch is water resistant to 330 feet. Why is there water under the crystal?
Obviously you have moisture inside the watch. If the crystal is not cracked then moisture can get in around the stem if the seal is no longer good. Although also possible is from a bad seal on the case back. These seals need to be replace every 3 to 4 years and then properly lubricated with a special silicon grease. With time, the seals will tend to flatten out and the grease will dry out. So get it serviced before the moisture will permanently damage it. Also. 330 ft is if you decend slowly. If you jump in a pool or subject it to a heavy spray, like in a shower, that is another story and they don't always keep the water out then.
