Would you take iWatch off each time you wash hands?

Don't wash your hands like that.

Apple already said its water resistant, so hopefully a single drop of rain should kill it (or getting splashed when washing hands).

Didn't you hear, the Apple Watch is going to maintain a vacuum inside the case...

It's water-resistant so no I won't take it off in those situations. What I would do if it's hastalavista is getting a free replacement from Apple.

All devices like this can handle a bit of water - most of them are rated to survive being submerged 1 metre for half an hour, which is more than enough for surviving a shower.

I shower with my smartwatch every single day, and I am sure the Apple Watch has no problems with something like that.

People aren't going to take off their watch to wash their hands. In any case, I'm sure Apple has ensured the product would not be damaged by minor water splashes.

No worries for the hipsters. They don't wash their hands.
