More of a correction really. I never understood why the YM didn’t have the GL to begin with?

I'm not advocating for it. I simply posted a fact.

That's interesting...thanks for sharing!

It's about time a micro adjustment hit the other professional models

A glide lock wouldn't make me want a YM, just my opinion of course. It seems like some folks are looking for reasons to like something about the 2019 roll-out... I don't see anything I want and it's going to make the squeeze for the desirable models even worse now in my opinion.

The glidelock seems really convenient. I don't see why they won't add glidelock to all their watches.
