When was the last time you saw one of these? Just picked this up a few weeks ago complete with box and all documentation. Just prior to sending it seller discovered a fresh battery wouldn't get it going again but I said send it anyway. Ordered up a new ETA quartz movement (identical to what the factory installed) for a total cost of $24. Just got it back today from getting the new movement installed. This is when quartz is a good thing. :lol: Pretty cool piece.

Congrats Paul!

Not my cup of tea (pardon the pun), but can certainly appreciate it. I haven't seen one of those in a long while.

Since I'm on the quartz topic, I've been wearing this Breitling cousin for a few weeks. It was also resurrected from the dead with a new $24 movement plus I had a new crystal added too while it was apart. The larger Chronosport UDT is a clone Pluton but you can see the family resemblance even in this Sea Quartz model also from the 1980's.
