Hi James

Fair enough - it's Jeff's call on the transition model piece.
With regard to the pictures, and going back to the initial reason for this post, the idea was to get a definative list of 844 models - from the french made ones onward. Great work has been done on this already from Paul and on the post on Cal11 but I wanted to try and dig up as much info on the movements as I could to go along side this. In addition to this there seems to be a number of different dial styles with various markings with various combo's of Professional, Professionel (french ones), 200m, Automatic, T SwissT and Swiss etc etc - would be good to see if this relates to the model gen or year or something.
If you want to mail me the pic you have of the 844 and it's 8440 / 980.XXX Quartz cousins that would be cool. If poss we could then align this to the excellent spreadsheet and go from there. If we have to stick to true Heuer's then the Super Prof and Spirotechnique (did the Heuer one have Spiro on the dial.. I can't remember) could also be included too....

As to giving credit to the image owners would look for advise from other members here on the correct etiquette.

No rush either... we've all got day jobs!

Cheers
Ben
