Re: 149xxx series case is years too late for a Chronomatic
In Response To: 149xxx series case is years too late for a Chronomatic ()

I agree. I took a photo of a Buren technical drawing of a Cal 12 that was dated 19/5/70 so I guess it is possible it went into production the same year, given the rather small differences between 11, 11i and 12 but that 149xxx is definitely too late.

We see non-Chronomatic dials by the late 147xxxs even.
