I went diving with my friends 2 weekends ago at Anilao Beach Club in Batangas, Philippines. Before going there, I made sure that my personal gears are packed i.e., my blue Bare Wetsuit, my Bare long diving fins, Bare frameless mask and Bare dive accessories because I like to be kinda fashionable even under water LOL! Tragic though, the fashionista-diver in me forgot one thing that day we traveled all the way to Anilao... my diver's watch. What I was wearing the whole time was my Phosphor Appear Rose Gold Crystal Watch that Phosphor Philippines recently gave to me for being chosen as one of their endorsers.
Anyways, come first day of our diving lessons with James Omac, I forgot to take off my Phosphor watch! I just got on my wetsuit and went diving for an hour. I didn't realize I wore it the whole time till Vincent Garrucho who photographed our before and after dive adventure told me as I was taking off my wetsuit, "WTF?! You wore your bling-bling while diving?" I was shocked too when I realized what he said. He meant my watch! I panicked... "Phosphor Philippines will kill me" ran in my head. I held my watch that has been my best friend since I got it... I looked at it... under the bright sun, there goes the beautiful Swarovski crystals shining like diamonds in my eyes with crystal shadows indicating 10:26... I laughed in relief... it's still alive... it survived and look ma, no leak!

| Proven and tested... water-resistant, marked with 30 Meters |
Water resistant watches are rated based on lab pressure tests comparable to a swimmer sitting still under water at certain depths. Watches that are marked "water resistant" but doesn't bear a mark specifying a depth rating are not designed to be submerged below the surface of the water. They may withstand this condition for a while if continually subjected to this situation, they will eventually leak.

| Eeek! That moment when Vincent yelled at me, "WTF?! You wore your bling-bling while diving?" |
I love my precious Phosphor Appear Rose Gold Crystal Watch... it has been and is still my best friend. I went to sleep with it, showered with it, went to parties and clubs with it, it matches/compliments all my outfits from business to sporty to smart casuals to designer clothes and I accidentally went diving with it! All the time, I got "ooohs" and "aaahs" from people who saw my watch and they all say one thing... it's beautiful!
It's really a joy to have a Phosphor Appear Watch. Have you seen the variants? Check it out HERE.
