The chronometer on the dial might just be a brand name, looking back yes i was mislead by the mention of Remontoir inside the case. Still not sure why it says Ancre Remontoir which translates to anchor winder, i imagine that means lever winder which still suggests to me 2 winding springs. I'm sure i have that same watch with chronometer on the dial ,I've never ventured inside it. My missus looks after 90% of my watches , so i will get hold of that one and have a look inside. Haha no not a remontoire, looks very basic. Good to see the keyless works, can you measure the plate size to cut down on the search for them. -

I recall a video on YT from Steffen Pahlow where he talks about getting himself a Chronometre (for which he paid more than he would have liked), but in his words "I had to. It is a Chronometre." I am wondering if you have more watch there than what you are aware of? Especially with what @Neverenoughwatches mentioned about two springs.
