Pretty sure that most Chronometer testing was done by the individual manufacturers prior to the Swiss Government deciding that it needed to be consistent and controlled.

Rolex did submit some of their watches for KEW testing, which you can google as the article I wrote about this for the forum seems to have been lost. These tests were mostly for bragging rights and used finely tuned examples.
