Ferrari edition chrono function

I've just acquired a Ferrari edition Panerai second hand, warranty card is dated 2006 & it's the one with the seconds dial at 9 o'clock & the chrono minutes at 3 o'clock. The watch is in very good condition with both straps, box & papers but no instructions? I can't for the life of me figure out how the chrono function works, the obvious buttons won't push in. I wondered if anybody here can help before I admit defeat & send it back? Thanks in anticipation.

Solved! I hadn't realised that there were bezels that locked the chrono buttons in place, once I unscrewed these it worked fine. (guess this is to do with waterproofing?).

Great. you must have screw in pushers for better water resistance I suppose.

Locked



Unlocked



The seller has confirmed its to do with water resistance, wonder why my Tag Monaco doesn’t have these?

Chrono Pushers

There are only a few watches that have chrono buttons which you can use under water. Omega Seamaster is on for sure. Tag Monaco was not mentioned on a list I saw....on WUS I think.
