Well you thought that was odd, I check out my Casio digital. It says WR50 in the upper corner so I assume that is 50 meters. But on the back it says: Water Resistance 5 BAR, Made in China. It can even be programed to read in 13 languages!

Remember when these were marked, "water resistant to 100 m" or "water resistant to 50 m?" All the watches I saw in this display were marked "water resistant eo 330 ft!!!!" Of course, that's more "hidden metric," 100 m. The WOMBATized watch I bought is made by Armitron. At least I could switch the time on it to 24-hour format and the date to day-month format.
