Jack, thanks very much . . .
. . . but this is most definitely what I do not need right now. You see I had this watch, and I sold this watch, and I'm really quite happy without it, and besides I have enough watches anyway, and now you're going to get me all worked up again.
Continue with your reports, if you must. I'll start saving.

Jack, Let me be the first to thank and congratulate you on a massive piece of work on the Speedy and it's lunatic history. As a reviewer, I can claim to be the first Yeah...... I liked it.......very Forsteresque but I liked it . I had to read 10,000 words...
Pleasure Nick. . .
. . .it's always nice to write about a watch one actual likes and admires . Jack
Fantastic report! Having read both,
Omega's own Speedmaster book as well as Kesaharu Imai's "Time Capsule", I enjoyed your article very much. It's full of interesting details and anecdotes. Thank you for this wonderful read! Looking forward to part II. Cheers, Valentin

Interesting review style, Jack. I do remember ...
the historical events, and have not thought about the Turtle club in many years
I bet you do Ron. . .
. . . those were the days when men were men, et cetera and you probably know the ins and outs more than most. Glad it met with your approval! Jack
Jack, you are a wordsmith sans pareil . . .
. . . or, as they say in the diamond business, "of the first water". A fabulous review . . . most cordially, Art
Shall I wait for the film - or read it now?? ...
Jack, this is again a masterpiece of writing. I did not manage to read mroe than a few paragraphs right now, but this is really, really fantastic stuff. Congratulations! Regards, Marcus
Thanks, Jack!
The Speedmaster is a legend and has earned its stripes making history. Part One is a great read and so I'm looking forward to Part Two. Also your article on the IWC Caliber 5001 in Feb 2005 is excellent, well researched and written. Cheers, LG
