Whats in my screw driver?

As I was tooling around with my new SD screw driver it rattled? I unscrewed the one end to find another screw stuffed in side of the screw driver. What is this for?

It, my fellow, is for using the extra long extension (also included in your green wallet that came with your watch), primarily to let you wear your Subbie outside a "dry" suit. A dry suit, much thicker than a "wet" suit, is used in really, really, cold water. Mine is a black screw. Or if you are on the XXXXL side of clothing sizes.

Cheers, David

Oh yeah, sorry, I should have mentioned that, Loaded. That's the extra screw you get to fix the "L" marked link to your bracelet. Chances are 99.99% you'll never need to unless you plan on diving 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea , but the screwdriver is a very useful tool and will come in handy all the time.

Cheers - JJ

Listen to JJ, he knows all about having a loose screw floating around in a hollow area.
