I am not sure how, but it seems you have misunderstood what I wrote.  It's
not a theory.  It's a well known and well documented fact.  (see
http://digilander.iol.it/aohc/slr02e.htm - which by the way puts the Heiland
era between 1959 - 1962 - the original question on this thread...)

You need to read what I said again, and take it in context of the whole
message and original question.  A Spotmatic that says Asahi on it is no
surprise, and does not negate the statements I made.  Spotmatics weren't
made after about 1973 (they were replaced by the Spotmatic II).

Well, I have a screwmount (Spotmatic SP) which does
not have the word "Honeywell" on it. It is an Asahi
Pentax. So that blows that theory.
