YM Mod Part 2

Well friends,as some of you may remember I changed the buckle on my YM to the GMTIIc easylink in the 1st mod thread....If you missed it,here it is!!http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=130832
I would like to add,I'm still loving this change for the comfort factor mostly but also the looks.....Recommended by me!!

Now to the second mod...
I finally got around to changing the caseback to the sapphire back...Although you can't see it when on the wrist,it is fun to check it out when off!!
It does add a little height to the watch,not sure on the exact measurements though..But still sits and fells good on the wrist,as the YM is known for!!!
I ended up doing this myself,after a little wait for the correct tools to do so...Originaly I was planning on having my AD do it but decided on tackling it with my own hands...I'm glad I did although I was a little hesitant to say the least..Very easy following Larry's thread on the topic and a little reading on the net!!
The 3135 movement although not spectacular by any means is a delight to watch and see up close!! A true workhorse...

So without me gabbing anymore,I'll the pics tell the story!!
PS:Sorry the watch is not clean but it does get worn you know...
