I bike as my primary form of commute / transportation, and whenever I hit a pothole or go over some particularly rough patches of road I worry that overtime this could damage the watch. Anyone have any insight into this? I did a bit of research and it seems like many watches these days have some sort of shock-resistance in the form of Incabloc or other technologies. But then I see posts like this which are worrying…
No shock-absorbtion system will be totally shock-proof. At least there will be fatigue.
So yes, the risk is real. As well as that of the strap breaking and the watch falling.
