Chronosport Sea Quartz 30 on Ebay

#1 Post by Styles Bitchley »

Hi there fellow maniacs. For those of you who have been hunting for a Chronosport 23501 (or Sea Quartz 30, as they are popularly known as) there hasn't been much to be had for several years. They do pop up from time to time though (I snagged one last autumn). Right now on ebay though there are two available.

The first is the less desirable version with "Sea Quartz 30" printed on the dial. It's still super nice. It does have the black day/date wheel like Magnum's, which is hard to come by. It has a buy it now of $1,275 https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Chronosport-Sea ... SwlBtehpkc

The second is more interesting to me, as it's an actual auction. It's got the correct Magnum dial with simply "Quartz" on the dial. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Chronosport-Qua ... SwhtNeiitx

I've got no connection to either seller. Just thought it'd be nice for a forum member to have a chance to pick one up. Cheers!

Wow! They’re all coming out of the woodwork! Must be COVID-19 panic :-)

Don’t think there’s been a better time to pick one up. However the Canadian dollar is in the toilet, so not ideal for me.

Wow, that's cool. I bought a Steinhart Pepsi GMT after I learned about that from someone here. I'd like a Chronosport Sea Quartz 30 as well. What a cool tribute to my favorite show.
