In Response To: Re: 300M Racing Chronometer ()

: Wow, that is extremely interesting albeit
: slightly confusing (on Omega's part, I
: understand you clearly John). What about
: this Dubois Depraz "piggyback"
: chronograph module? Any further comments or
: testimonials about this... we are all
: experts on the 2892-A2 but does this module
: compromise the movements integrity? is it
: troublesome? I may have oversaw any reports
: on this...

Here are a couple of links to threads on WatchUSeek about this movement. Eric (eptaz), the Omega forum moderator, knows more about this model than I do. It's not terribly popular, which is why you don't hear much about it. Based on what Eric has heard, there haven't been many problems with the movement.
