I think I would go for the Duell also. BSA is British threading, which anymore is the most common found. As Chrome Molly noted, the fixed cup on British thread is left hand, so clockwise to loosen. This keeps the fixed cup from loosening itself up, courtesy of the Wright brothers, IIRC. Sheldon's link will probably discuss this.
