Galaxy5pro vs Sauna

[Foxy999]

Hi all, does anyone know if its safe to wear the Galaxy5 Pro smart watch in the sauna and steam room? 

Im looking to upgrade from my gear sport which after a few years of use has held up extremely well which i have used in both sauna and steam room.

Thank you 😁

Why would you want to wear your sports watch while in the sauna ??
Keep it looking good and in working order and leave in in the locker.

Because it fits in with my routine as i monitor my swimming using my sports watch, then i go straight in the sauna where i also monitor my heart rate...if the watch is designed to withstand a sauna/steam room like my gear sport then i will buy 1.
I really appreciate your reply but my question i guess is a more technical 1 as i need to know if the watch "can" be used in the circumstances mentioned.

Sauna could damage the water resistance feature of the watch.
