Technical Perspective: Ferrari Formula 1 Engineer Disassembles A Heuer Caliber 15 Automatic Chronogr
Automatic chronographs are wonderfully complicated movements, and the race to produce the first ended with the announcement of the Chronomatic in 1969. This movement was used by Hamilton, Heuer and Breitling (to name just a few) all the way into the 1980s. Recently we were pointed to a fascinating article on OnTheDash detailing the disassembly of a Chronomatic Caliber 15, complete with scans of the official service manual. Even more interesting is who wrote this article: Gianluca – an Italian Formula One engineer for Ferrari.
