No. I don’t care what any of the other responses are but I can tell you from experience that it is not fully water resistant. I used it to swim laps and after I got out it worked fine but later that day it stopped working all together. It still doesn’t work. I wouldn’t risk it.

My first time swimming with the Versa I was a little scared. But it is designed for water and it did a great job of not only counting my laps, but identifying my strokes on each lap.

My daughter wears hers to swim laps and recently wore it to a water park with zero issues. She’s had hers since May.

It is not swim-proof. The first time I took it swimming it died right after I got out of the pool. Fitbit replaced it. I got a second watch and was worried to take it swimming so waited for a month, finally took it swimming and it died. Fitbit is sending my second replacement watch. I would not swim with it.

They say it is. But like Alexinwonderland and Kirsten, mine also suspiciously stopped working one day after a swim. And I mean the black screen of death. So I sent it back.

My second Versa (the first one was replaced because of a bad battery), died suddenly while in the pool. I do not believe FitBit claims that you can swim with this device!

I have had mine since may. I've put it on and only taking it off for charging since then. I shower, I swim, I play in the pool with my 4 yr old, I take long baths, I snorkel, I dive in the deep, I do everything with this one on (and I love how it doesn't feel like you have smartwatch on) and I (knock on wood) have never had any what so ever any kind of problems with my Versa. Fitbit say it's waterproof up to 50 meters and I can definitely support that and even little more than that. One thing I do know is that I love my Versa and I couldn't have asked for a better product, I don't understand why people are having so much trouble with it mine is lovely and I wouldn't trade it for the world! ♡ see less

I second Alexinwonderland's statement. I just got mine a little wet (splashed and in less than 1 ft of water) while floating on the water yesterday and it stopped working. I would recommend you don't get this wet. The water resistant statement is a joke. Now I have to wait 5-10 days just to ship my watch back before they'll send me my replacement "options".

Mine was fine after a swim in the pool. However, my husband swam with his Versa ONE time in the pool and his stopped working with the black screen of death. I'm obviously afraid to take mine for a swim again.

It's advertised to 50M water resistant.

It sounds to me that the problem is in assembly.  If the watch is put together correctly it should be water resistant.  BUT, if not put together correctly it will leak.  My third Versa died after only 20 minutes in the pool.  It started vibrating and I could not stop it, then got a bit warm.  Back to Best Buy for refund!
