HOW WATER RESISTANT IS MY WATCH?
There are two basic levels of water resistance for our watches, 3 ATM and 5 ATM, the details section of the product page will inform you as to the level. Here's a breakdown of both...
3 ATM or 99 feet
In technical speak this means they have "been tested to withstand static pressure for a only a short period of time at the stated depth." What this means in non-technical speak is they can be exposed to water, but should not be submerged in water for long periods of time. So don't worry about sweating on them, wearing them in the rain or washing your hands in them. However, you should try to avoid swimming in them and definitely no diving! If you do get thrown in the pool and your watch goes dead, it should be ok if you let it air dry for a couple of days. If not, send it back and we'll replace it or provide you with a refund.
Below is the Industry Organization for Standardization (ISO) definition of 3 ATM water resistance, for those of you who are interested in the subject :)
Protected in everyday life, bathing, accidental splashes, short swimming or car washing - it is resistant against perspiration, water vapor, rain drops. It is tested for water resistance up to 3 ATM, and must be able to survive 30 minutes under water at a depth of 1 m (3 feet) followed by 90 seconds under a pressure corresponding to 30 meters.
5 ATM or 165 feet
You would think this makes a big difference in the definition of water resistance but according to the ISO the only change is you can now go parachuting, hang gliding and skiing in it. We don't come up with these activities, we swear! Here's the official definition by the ISO:
Protected in everyday life, bathing, accidental splashes, short swimming, car washing, parachuting, hang gliding and skiing - it is resistant against perspiration, water vapor, rain drops.
CAN I REPLACE THE BATTERY?
Yes, most jewelers can change the battery on any of our watches except the regular VanDam model (the unit is sealed so the battery can't be changed)... or contact us and we can give you directions on how to replace it.

WAS DREW REALLY AN UNDERWEAR MODEL?
As far as we know, yes :)

QUESTIONS ON THE GO-ENABLED WATCHES...?
Where can I buy things with my RumbaTime GO?
Contactless Payment technology is expanding rapidly at retailers around the world. Users can make purchases with a simple wave of their wrist at thousands of retailers such as convenience stores, restaurants, gas stations, drugstores, and even movie theatres. To learn more about retailers who accept contactless payment click here.
To register your GO and establish your Emergency Response Profile click here. Please note that the Contactless Payment Card can only be issued in the US.
What is the difference between the Perry & Park GO styles and the VanDam GO?
The Perry and Park GO features Contactless Payment. The VanDam GO features Contactless Payment and a unique Emergency Response Profile.
How do I load funds onto the Visa Prepaid Chip and Companion Card?
During the registration process you will be prompted to link your Prepaid Chip and Companion Card to a funding source such as a debit card, credit card or direct deposit. Upon linking to your desired fund source, choose the dollar amount you would like on your band and load that amount onto the Visa Prepaid Chip and Companion Card. Once loaded, the user can make cashless purchases with a simple wave of the wrist at thousands of retailers. Please note the Chip and Companion Card link to the same account.
How much money can I load onto my Visa Prepaid Card?
Users can add up to $500 per load and can maintain a maximum balance of $500.
What is the VITAnumber?
The VITAnumber is the unique alpha/numerical identifier that is individually assigned to each user. The VITAnumber is used to establish your account and links the user to his/her Emergency Response Profile. Unlike other ID bracelets, which print all your personal information on the band, the VITAnumber anonymizes your personal information until it’s needed.
What information is included in the ERP?
The user can include as much or as little personal information in the ERP as desired. There are a number of categories that can be populated including: name, address, emergency contacts, medications, allergy notification, relevant medical history, relevant insurance information etc.
How is my identification and health information accessed in an emergency?
First responders are trained to look for identifying information upon arriving at the scene of an accident. The GO acts like a dog tag or ID bracelet. Each watch has an identifying number linked to your Emergency Response Profile. The first responder can access the information you have stored in your Emergency Response Profile by calling the Telephone Access Center.
Is the information I input on my ERP secure?
Vita Products, Inc. endeavors to safeguard and protect your User Information whether it is stored online or offline. They have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of User Information under our control. They employ encryption technology in an attempt to prevent your User Information from being intercepted during transmission over the Internet. The Website also requires that you use a Web browser that supports 256-bit encryption. The website also uses a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. As an added security precaution, all User Information is kept on a physically separate server with firewalls to help prevent intruders from gaining access.
Although VITA has implemented these extensive measures to help protect your User Information, no technical measures are guaranteed to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure of your User Information, and VITA makes no such guarantees. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while they strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect Your User Information, they cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Why do you ask for my Social Security number?
Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens a card account. A Social Security number is necessary for this verification.
I signed up for my VITAband Visa Prepaid Chip and Companion Card account and I can’t create a password?
Your password is automatically the last four digits of the phone number you used to set up your payment account.
