Some years (seem like ages) ago, that was the first lens I opened to clean. Of course, I screwed up and suddenly part of the lens fell on my hands and I could not put it back. After a long time trying I put the pieces apart and left it for later. 7 years later I think I can say I just don't have the time to do that... too many things (2 kids included) in between. But I remember the lens was good and images were beautiful. But since I will never be able to put it together again, if anyone wants to give it a try, just let me know, I will send it for free. I am pretty sure that, in the right hands, it can be done relatively fast. Somehow I fell romantic about the lens and would like it to be used by someone. I would post if from Spain.
And, finally, and more importantly, Merry Christmas!

These Yashica C/Y lenses are pretty straightforward to work on. I'm not in the EU, but for anyone who takes this, if you need any tips on reassembly, feel free to reach out.
