The only question I have is about waterproofing after the back cover is screwed down. Is there any cement between the back cover and the case?

Lana 313, eu tive um problema com a caixa frontal do 910xt. Comprei essa caixa frontal com a proparts, autorizada da garmin no Brasil. Tudo custou 355 reais ( case frontal + lente + frete ). Você só precisa abrir um chamado na proparts, enviar as fotos e informar que precisa de uma nova caixa frontal (esse eh site deles https://proparts.desk360.com.br/app/auth...).
