cheap replacement:

1. buff with baby shampoo one drop on each lense, rub nicely with cloth before taking goggles for a swim.

2. forgot to buff before going to pool, no worries, collect some spit in your mouth and spit once on each lens and rub nicely with fingers. Then rinse once in water.

both methods are good enough for one swim session (because you'd rinse your goggles with tap water after use).

what is your budget and what do you intend to use it for? if just to use the stopwatch to track your lap time. I just use this one:

I bring to dive in the sea also no problem.

1st time try out 50m pool.
Finish 4lap only ( go n back) 400m in 40min swimming.
Drag to long becz every 50m I stop n rest

But quite happy becz able to finish my freestyle without stopping in the middle for 50m..

I tot I was doing great but I check online it seem I have done terrible. Lol

How much time does one ppl normally finish a 50m ?

quick question:

i can swim normal pool ( not taller than my height) and i am trying to swim deep pool but there is a fear there and i dont know how to stand swim yet

so does anyone take classes to learn stand swimming or you just learn yourself in deep pool
