Cal14 has longer chrono wheels shafts, so...

Hi Marco,

please don't forget that the Cal14 GMT (and also the Cal11 GMT version) MUST have the three chrono wheels with longer shafts in order to allow the needed space for the 24 hours GMT hand on the dial side.

So there are two alternatives:

a) the chrono module is taken from a proper Cal11 modified GMT (so already has the three wheels 8000, 8020 and 8601 with longer shafts) --> I think is the right one;
b) the chrono module is taken from a standard early Cal11 and someone replaced all the three wheels --> quite difficult as those three wheels are very hard (not to say impossible) to find (I waited two years for an 8020 one and had it from fellow member of this forum).

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

Gianluca
