I change necklaces often, but I wore the pave pendant to Hawaii for a few weeks, never took it off. Salty ocean, showers, chlorinated pools, sand play with 3 boys, it looked great! I did remove it after I returned from holiday, and I usually clean my diamond jewelry whenever I have time. Nevertheless, the pendant looked sparkly during the entire trip. It was even more sparkly after I cleaned it though lol.

I copied this from a website on jewelry care (their bold letters, not mine):
"We do not recommend that any fine jewelry be worn in public swimming pools or hot tubs. Chlorine is a corrosive chemical - it won't do any harm to diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and some other gemstones, but it is not good for your white or yellow gold to say nothing of sterling silver."
Another (talks about wedding rings but would apply to any fine jewelry):
