Waterproof Chrono pushers

[jclockwork]

Hi,

Any experience of rep. Panerai chronos' water resistance?

I would think, that compared to other rep. PAM models, chronograph models (162, 188, 196 etc.) might be more vulnerable to water damage?

Are chrono pushers sealed in reps? ...does a frog have a watertight ass?

rgds,

Cant tell about PAMs, but SMP chrono and BCE I've heard to be tested 50-100+meters

I won't use the PAM chronos in water....I mad a mistake on having my 253 on while taking a shower.....not good!!!

Have to send it for a complete service!

my watchmaker tested the 250 and 251, both are waterproof.

he was very astounded, he would have bet that chronos are mostly not waterproof, but he would have lost.

Hi,

I have the PAM253 with Chrono.

I swim with it, also shower. Before doing so i had it waterproof tested. When i opened the caseback and removed the crown stem, i saw that none of the O rings were greased to fully protect against water. So i greased them with Bergean sticky grease.

The one thing i do not know how to protect are those CHRONO PUSHERS.

Anyone has an idea if the chronopushers also can be protected, for maintenance, to keep them waterproofed, even after 5 years??
