Mid Sized YM Questions

I'm seeing some conflicting information out on the web. Most likely due to fakes.

I know the movement in the mid-sized YM is 2125 (not 3135), but is it triple locked crown or twin lock? I see pics on ebay that have the bar on the winding crown, indicating twin lock, but the Rolex site says all YM's are triple lock. Thanks for the help TRF!!!!!

The movement is Cal. 2235, and the crown is TWINlock.

The Cal. 2135 was used from 1983 to 1999.

Darn it. I knew that, I meant to type 2235.

Thanks for confirming the twin lock. Ebay auctions are NOT a good source of information.

FWIW, the twinlock crown doesn't protrude as far out as the triplock crown
