Based on my experience the cal 861 can be problematic. Not big on manual winding watches so no Speedy 3570.50 for me.
The THC has the chronograph function, but does not use a chronograph movement. I believe it uses the excellent ETA 2892-A2 movement with a Dubois-Depraz chronograph module. This combination works quite well, but some watchmakers do not have the capability to work on the module. IMO by far and away the Omega Speedmaster that uses the Frederic Piquet 1285 chronograph movement with the co-axial escapement with free sprung balance is the best chronograph movement available for the money. Omega used them in their automatic Speedmaster before embracing their 9500 movement. Omega Speedmaster 311.30.44.50.01.002 is the model that uses this movement.
