Yes, the Sea Quartz 30 is back, now being produced by Momentum. There is a connection with the original as well, as the owner of Momentum actually used to run Chronosport! See how they did with this new version, and if it is as good as the original!

Before starting Momentum, our founder Simon and his family owned a watch company called Chronosport. In 1977, they launched one of the first-ever analog quartz diver’s watches, the Sea Quartz 30. The brand became so popular that it was soon sold in almost every serious dive store in the US and Canada. This watch was also famously worn by Tom Selleck in the first 3 seasons of the hit show Magnum PI.

Our January and May 2023 pre-orders are now sold out. Thank you all again for the fantastic response to the Sea Quartz 30.

I paid for it, waited for it, waited AGAIN for it, but really like it. Not perfect, I think the clasp could lose some weight, and they need to be careful not to jack up the price, but a fun watch with or without the connection to one of the finest moustaches of the 1980s. Cheers, Jody
