I own the 200M version, and the documentation doesn't say "push all the =
buttons you like".  It says=20
"watch is not a diver watch and should not be used for diving".

The web site however does state the following:
http://www.timex.com/html/help_glossary.html#W

NOTE: TO MAINTAIN WATER-RESISTANCE, DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS UNDER WATER =

UNLESS YOUR WATCH IS INDICATED AS 200 METER WATER-RESISTANT.=20
Chris did not state which version he is using.

Oh, and I DID buy my 200M version for $39 at Walmart.  :)

  No, he trusts his life to a $50 watch with instructions that =
specifically that THIS *PARTICULAR* Timex Ironman Triathlon model will =
NOT flood if you press the buttons underwater.

  The 50m and 100m models carry the warning you describe.  The 200m =
model basically says "push all the buttons you like".

  RTFM.

  Or go read www.timex.com.
