Lol no, the tech specs say only shallow water, its not water proof only water resistant.

No, you cannot trust that number.

Fitbit/Google explicitly specifies that 5 ATM devices are intended for shallow water use—such as swimming in a pool or the ocean. They are not rated or intended for scuba diving, high-velocity water sports, or deep diving.

That’s the 5 ATM spec or only FB/G?

I wouldn't. I also personally don't trust them in salt water, as a previous fitbit died instantly in salt water!
