    Awesome article, Thanks! I'm not totally clear on whether this settles the issue of 808 vs 809, but at least there's more info to assess.

    One humble suggestion is for the pic of the service dial with no 10 at the 2 hour mark, maybe use a pic that shows this part of the dial?

    In any event, very much appreciated.

    Thank you for the Excellent and Thorough work updating the Holy Grail information!!
    You've saved a lot of collectors from damaging their watches and the value degradation
    that some bad information floating around could have caused.
    Your book should be a part of any serious Speedmaster collectors library.

    Great stuff. Wish I had picked on up in the late 90s.

    RIP Chuck

    Fantastic review! It's not a Speedmaster that I am particularly drawn to want to acquire, but I love the attention to detail and especially the photos!

    Brilliant and detailed review. Not a Speedy I particularly care for, but this would be massively useful to owners or potential collectors.
