    and to this day, none done better.


    This chart is perfect.

    I'm not sure if it's cool to re-print / re-post w/o family permission. If nogo, please erase, STAT.

    Did Mr. Maddox have a D-Base programmer background?? You can tell he had a mind which worked in Assembler/Fortran/Machine language.

    One of my undergrad degrees is MIS and I recognize the 386 character of his work... #humblebrag lol

    Good eye.

    *edit

    In fairness to Chuck - it really is a bad watch company name. Like, really bad...

    Ugh

    At the risk of questioning scripture (and recognizing that this was compiled in the "Wild West" days of chrono collecting), Chick has omitted some chronograph movement families that are near and dear to the vintage heart. I can think of Excelsior Park, Angelus, Minerva, Universal/Martel...

    Yes, interesting observation.

    Maddox had a shit ton of Gallets so there must be good reason for EP's omission?
