Daytona - sticking pushers

The chronograph pushers (both) are sticking a little when fully screwed in, making it hard to unscrew them. Now if this was anything else made of metal, I would put a bit of WD40 on there.... but this is a £6000 watch!

Is this a common problem with the Daytona? Should I just go to an AD and let them have a look, or any other solution? Thanks

If you tighten them too much, they will stick. At least that's been my experience. They don't have to be super tight. They offer no better water resistance if they are tightened more. Their sole purpose is to prevent accidentally pushing them in while you are using the chronograph.
