The GWX chronometer can be added to OLC GUI. I don't think a digital-style chronometer is possible, though.
In the lower left Corner, it only currently displays hours and minutes, but I was wondering if there was anyway to add seconds to that. I'm assuming that it does track seconds in the game, and it would just be a matter of calling it up into the display.

OIC. No, I don't think that can be done.
Thats unfortunate

Well then, baring me finding a solution to that one, how would I undo your removal for the GWX chronometer?
Well you can try just copying and pasting it in. Assuming I didn't re-use any of the ID's, that should work.

Uninstall OLC GUI and open the GWX menu file in notepad. Find a section called 'Draggable Chronometer- BY JONZ'. The start and end of that section are marked with lots of ';' characters, like this:

;;;;;;;;;;Draggable Chronometer- BY JONZ;;;;;;;;;;;;

<lots of code>

;;;;;;;;;;End of Draggable Chronometer- BY JONZ;;;;;;;;;;

Or something like that.
Grab everything in that section and copy it. Past it on to the end of the OLC GUI menu file. Next, find the last entry in the OLC GUI menu file which starts with [G3F

It will have an index, e.g. [G3F I345] (it might not be 345, I made that up). Now go to the start of the draggable chronometer section you just added, and start renumbering every item, like so:

[G3F I346]

[G3F I347]

etc.

Then save your changes, re-enable OLC GUI, and see if it works.

Edit1:
Damn, I forgot, you'll also need to change dials.cfg... lemme take a look at it.

Edit2:
Okay, you also need to add the following code to the end of the OLC GUI dials.cfg

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; JONZ Dragable Chronometer;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;

[Dial48]
Name=Add_ChronoSec
Type=13; DIAL_CHRONO_SEC
Dial=0x0
CrtVal=0x3FF00002
NewVal=0x0
DialVal=0,360
RealVal=0,60; seconds
Circular=Yes

[Dial49]
Name=Add_ChronoMin
Type=14; DIAL_CHRONO_MIN
Dial=0x0
CrtVal=0x3FF00003
NewVal=0x0
DialVal=0,360
RealVal=0,60; minutes
Circular=Yes

[Dial50]
Name=Add_ChronoEstSec
Type=40; DIAL_TORP_ESTIM_SEC
Dial=0x0
CrtVal=0x3FF00004
NewVal=0x0
DialVal=0,360
RealVal=0,60; seconds
Circular=Yes

[Dial51]
Name=Add_ChronoEstMin
Type=41; DIAL_TORP_ESTIM_MIN
Dial=0x0
CrtVal=0x3FF00005
NewVal=0x0
DialVal=0,360
RealVal=0,60; minutes
Circular=Yes


Last but not least, add 4 to the number of dials in dials.cfg (it's on the first line).

Edit3: oh, and you'll need to change those dial numbers, so instead of [Dial48], [Dial49] etc, the numbering carries on from... whatever the last dial number was in OLC GUI.
