  1. I'm training for an olympic triathlon and all I have is dress watches
    so I bought a Timex Ironman watch that's rated as water resistant to
    100M. After two times swimming laps at the local pool it had a
    considerable amount of condensation inside. I didn't press any buttons
    while swimming. I returned it to the store and need to find another
    watch and I'm wondering if this was an anomaly or if other's have had
    similar experiences.

    If you don't like Ironman, what other watches would you recommend?

    Polar

    Having a watch AND heart rate monitor pays off. Invest some money, and
    buy a Polar that will help you with the timing and laps, because
    you'll need it for the races and training.

    Actually, are there any (cheap) watches out there for with (split)
    timers whose buttons you can press underwater without trouble?
