Ever seen someone take down a cheap quartz watch not intended for diving? I've
seen some that don't flood. Not bad for $5, you might think, but I've seen
them run slow, maybe 5 minutes a dive. I guess it's because the quartz crystal
is spec'ed for 1 ATM, and vibrates too fast under greater pressure.

 Still using physics every day, especially the gravity part.
