Screw down pushers… love or hate
What do you think about screw down pushers? Myself im fine with them. Think they add a distinct look to the watch. And let’s face it I think very few people actually use the complication on a regular basis.

Let's be honest, they're not great if you want to time how long you can hold your breath under water!
They seem unnecessary since you can watches like the tudor alinghi chrono that allows you to use the pushers underwater without the need of screwdown.
This is literally stuff I don't care about squared.
Never needed them, never will.
IMO, these are solutions looking for a problem to solve.
I like the look but they're not great if you actually want to use the chrono
They make the watch look too...busy? "fat"? cumbersome?
I don’t understand the decision to make a key function of a product more difficult to access.
They're on a watch I rather fancy. Not enough to dream about it, but I might get it some day. If the pushers are quick and easy to thread, I'm fine with them. Peace of mind for swimming. Other than that, I don't care.
Stupid idea if you want to use a chrono. Makes the complication useless if they are screwed down. It’s just for show
If they are unscrewed then the water resistance is compromised so why have them
Sinn make a chrono you can operate at 500m. Now that’s a chrono done right
I like it.
It's too easy to accidentally set off or stop a chronograph when digging in a pocket or doing physical labor.
The ability to lock them up is handy in a "tool watch" kind of setting.
Just so you don't push by mistake under water, so they have a use.
