I just want to get your thoughts on this matter.

I'm in the process of planning a family vacation back home to Jamaica and find myself wondering if I should wear my Super Avenger as my day to day watch. Knowing that the pushers are not screw down I'm a bit cautious about wearing it on the beach or while in the pool in fear of accidentally activating the pusher.

Go figure a watch rated for such depth yet I'm wondering if I should bring it in fear of flooding it.

Am I off the mark on this and has anyone accidentally activate the pusher on a Chrono. during water sports. :shock:

I've never had a pusher accidently activate doing anything, but typically my activities consist of golf, tennis and occasionally swimming.

When i head to the carribean i am going to be wearing my B-1 probably.

Remember if you do take your Super Avenger or any other watch over the border to bring your receipts! If the customs guys ask you "where'd you get that watch?" its much easier when you have the receipt if they know its something expensive.

Thats a good point the last thing I want to do is having to convince them that I didn't buy the watch while on vacation. Now that I think about it I might just end up bringing something more subtle.

I'm not a big fan of being questioned by customs officers especially the ones with big ego's.
