: As rare as it was, Chuck was occasionally wrong. I will note that

cannot be accessed from Chuck's primary index page
: www.chronomaddox.com . There is no link to it from that page. To
: my knowledge Chuck never used the e-mail address listed. Chuck
: frequently hosted other's work . . .

: At one point I understand Chuck hosted an Omega FAQ for TimeZone,

: It appears that a TZ FAQ (which may be obsolete) is the source of
: this table, and that Damon Michau at TZ was the author of this
: section and this table. Chuck merely had a copy of it in his
: vast archives on the web, no longer accessible from his web
: index. Sort of an orphaned link . . . .

: Chronocentric has the benefit of the collected work of, and the
: tragic legacy of, two highly respected and sadly departed
: horological enthusiasts who mostly focused on Omega: Derek
: Ziegler and Chuck Maddox. We have not, to my knowledge, updated
: or corrected either's work, but have merely preserved their
: legacy in the state those fine gentlemen left it. We have
: discussed changing or reorganizing both gentlemen's fine work,
: but have to date opted to leave their legacy unaltered.

: In this particular case, we will contact Damon regarding this table
: and its current status elsewhere on the web. I feel we cannot
: correct another's work without their permission.
