Not to mention very tasty. Please don't open the back of your YM. You'll have to get it pressure tested if you do. See you Saturday!

I have used one on an older model Seiko but not my Rollies. It worked great on the Seiko.

Well dang! Give me a scalpel and some sutures and let's do it!

Anyone have a heart they would like to donate?
