Column wheel

Question:

Does the Daytona uses the column wheel for chrono?

Until Rolex developed its new in-house chronograph movement for the Daytona.The last new column wheel chronograph,was the Lemania Cal. 1351 designed around 1994.Quite a few manufactures used the colum design including Rolex now for the Cal 4130.

I'm pretty sure the OMEGA Broad Arrow Chrono 3303 movement also uses the column wheel arrangement.

Thanks for the link, very informative. Reason I was asking was due to the fact that the FP 3301 movement on the SMP Chrono that I just bought also uses a column wheel design.
