I just bought this used---mint condition. What is the opening for on the opposite side of the casing as the winder--left side of casing, and what keeps that little button (plug) in place and the insides waterproof? Mine came out during shipping to me. |

It's the access port for the bezel gearing. I think that it's just a push fit but an AD can arrange to get it fixed for you. |

Thank you. It pushed right back in perfectly. It's tiny, but it may even have a gasket. The only thing I have to figure out is how it can be waterproof with a vulnerable opening like that. |

It's not waterproof. It is rated to 100m of STATIC pressure. Water activities are not static, they are dynamic, increasing the effective pressure as you move through the water. I've had a few GTs and would never swim with one though 100m is considered suitable for swimming. |
