    The Speedmaster 376.0822 was nicknamed ‘Holy Grail’ by Chuck Maddox for one simple reason: according to himself he searched for this watch with the intensity that King Arthur searched for the Holy Grail.

    To be fair, R-J does name check the MWO research clearly in the article. Personally I grit my teeth when mention of this particular auto Speedy is made since it seems to kick off all sorts of arguments and pissing contests. Hopefully some definitive info will calm that down a bit.

    Haha, not offended :) But always listening to feedback and reading comments. As I wrote in the article, it was time this got sorted out properly, before turning into a real snake pit. The bad thing is, prices will probably further increase now since there's some more definitive answers on the 376.0822.

    I understood there's a little fittie going on, but I am not letting myself being pulled in. I love the work done by MWO, I am also pretty sure the other initiative was done with the best effort and intentions. That's it and that's that, not worth all that popcorn. :)
