Hi Joe,

How fast do you really want to rewind the M2?

With the M2, I rewind my film in 40 sec flat.  There is only slight
resistance as you roll the rewind knob between your thumb and index finger.
 I have seen the add on and I still prefer the M2 as it is. The old M2/M3
rewind knob is a fine piece of craftsmanship  which gives character to the
old Ms.
