Re: Submariner O-Rings in a YM?

Hi,

Is it possible to make a YM more water resistant by putting Submariner O-Rings in it? The Submariner (16610) and YM (16622) have roughly the same casing and I was wondering if it would be possible to do this? I am told the waterproof seals are very different between the two.

Also if possible would Rolex be likely to agree to it, or would tell you to go take a jump?

I guess the simplest answer is to get a Submariner or just make do with the 100m YM. But the thing is*I really like the YM and would like to have the added water proofing on it.

With Thanks,
Tim
