Abstract: There is disclosed herein a water tight submersible electronic device, such as a dive computer or a dive watch, comprising a case, a bezel, and glass through which a display can be viewed. The glass, case and bezel can all be different materials. The bezel is affixed to the case, in a permanent or removable manner, and has an opening for the glass and an electronic display. The electronic display is positioned under the glass and within the electronic device. For example, the glass is separated from and locked to the bezel by at least a locking ring, a shock absorber and/or a gasket. As such the glass can be free floating so that it and the bezel can deform under pressure without being damaged or causing damage to each other while maintaining a water tight connection.

Abstract: An coupled antenna apparatus particularly well adapted for small form factor, metal encased applications that utilize satellite wireless links, e.g. GPS. Certain examples use electromagnetic feeding that includes one or more separate feed elements that are not galvanically connected to a radiator element of the antenna. Additionally, one radiator element of the antenna can be located on an outermost surface of a bezel of an electronic device, for example a wrist-wearable device. A low capacitance transient voltage suppressor diode is housed within an electronic device and electrically coupled to such an outer radiator element.
