    To me that means I can drop it to bathtub by mistake or use it in rain, not to swim with it.

    I guess water went in via button and maybe the reboot is caused by button being continually 'pressed'.

    You are right. The best you can expect from IP67 is that it works after washing hands and get accidentially a wet watch, getting a bit water during rain on it or in the very best case a short drop into water.

    1 meter means the pressure of 1m water column. When the water has a higher pressure (e.g. moving arms in water, water stream) it's far beyond specification.
