: what a great looking watch!! while some cannot live without the

: with all the hysteria about the 321 chronograph movements, this 320

: Well done!!

I did some additional research and believe there is a non-original part in the calibre 320 for the intermediate chronograph wheel bridge. Well, it doesn't match illustrations in Omega: A Journey Through Time, but it does match other calibre 320/321 schematics. Hmmmm

If Lemania was consistent with other users of this calibre (family) as with Omega, I have dated my "Macy's" calibre 321 to prior to 1946, which is when the minute jumper style on the calibre 320 was adopted.
