Quick question,
My stopwatch was running on my daytona and I accidentally pressed the second botton(reset) without stopping the stopwatch first. Will there me any damage to the watch.

dont do it again, its not a flyback movement so forcing the bottom button while running can cause harm.

Now you are confusing the issue.

IMO the reset button won't engage until the stop button has been pressed.

In other words 'nothing happens'.

nope, I did the same thing, as long as the stopwatch didn't reset. Also, it has a column wheel to stop you from pressing the bottom pusher.
