Not true at all. The watch is still water resistant even with the pushers unscrewed.

Pleasant Aberration right there. Daytona and AD rarely appear in the same sentence these days

Congrats OP

I have heard chlorine expedites the wear on seals, and if you swim in highly chlorinated pools this is even more pronounced. Be careful!!!

Jk congrats!!
