Hi everyone if you have a chronomat with the screw down pushers, and you actually use them, do you find the screwdown kinda annoying? I'm thinking if each time I went to use them and have to unscrew it and screw it, wouldn't it get annoying?

I would use it all time time when I'm cooking or maybe timing myself when I park at a meter :wink:
Thanks!

For those types of use you don't need to screw them down, just leave them unscrewed. Screw down pushers are a safety feature to avoid inadvertent operation of the pushers under water and so they only need to be screwed down when swimming / diving.

Thanks Roff, but now if I left them loose, would they be more likely to be damaged if I bang my watch against the edge of a wall or something? I tried it yesterday at an AD but didn't really noticed if they moved a lot when loose. The nice salesman told me the same thing about leaving them loose and that there are gaskets already to prevent dust from getting in.

No more risk than any watch without screwdown pushers.
