I once dropped my SE into a pond while I was fishing. I didn’t notice until I actually saw the thing at the bottom of the pond. It was probably down there at least 5 minutes.
I fished it out and it worked completely fine. I don’t think SEs were even marketed as waterproof. They still had the headphone jack, which I think was the weakspot
