Actually, the chronometer will give you all that information IF you have an accurate range in the TDC. When you shoot a torpedo, the chronometer, based on the range in the TDC puts a red line on the dial. When the second hand gets to the red line (sometimes you have to have the second hand go around a couple of times and then to the red line) that's when the boom is supposed to happen.

If you'll take a look at the attack map, you'll see your projected torpedo track and at the end you'll see a time, based on the range you told the TDC. Warning: Garbage in is garbage out. If it says 2:46, that's two minutes 46 seconds, of course.

Now look at the chronometer and there should be a red line at the :46 position. But remember there are two whole minutes THEN the boom when the needle gets to the red line IF your range in the TDC is accurate.

If you're using RFB you'll find that since they didn't understand the attack map, they made it almost impossible to get to. You'll have to modify your menu or maybe find a button on one of the command bars that works. In TMO it's just a stab of the F6 button away.
