I agree not inadequate at all, it is tried and tested and has worked amazingly for years and years... I agree I love the look of the new clasp on your ym. I am hoping Rolex does not change the YM anytime soon beause I know I would have to upgrade Love your pics of this YM Rob with the mods

How did you manage to get a new styled clasp to replace the tin metal stamped one? How do you keep it so scratch-less!

Thanks....I like it....Although I'd hate to have to switch them everytime I changed watches.
Post some pics when you're done!

I was very lucky to acquire it from another TRF member in the UK.
I just find the look and feel much better.
As for no scratches, it was brand new then..
