I was asked to fix a new Garmin not charging. I asked what cable they were using and was told it was their old cable. This is what the old cable looked like.

Fun fact, what killed their last Garmin was corrosion on the pads in the same position.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to disappoint you. I prefer the silicone due to the fact it can break away when snagged on stuff I don't wanna be attached to.
I never had water get under it when washing my hands, but do get water/sweat under it when working. Guess it just doesn't bother me.
