In Response To: Magnetic/Xray ??? Can you put a watch thru? ()

: Just thought of this today as I am planning a
: airline trip. I have learned that magnetic
: fields can mess up my omega planet-ocean
: automatic . But what about the security xray
: at the airport? Will that have a similar bad
: effect. Common sense says I would have heard
: about any problems but is there any risk?

Nope -- but keep the large hunk of metal on your wrist away from the metal detectors.

Xrays won't affect your watch in carryon or checked baggage.
