Did anyone here buy one?
Yes. I pulled the trigger last night. The first pre-order batch for $195 had already sold out, but they're doing a second pre-order batch for the same $195 price until January 18. The second batch is scheduled to arrive in May.
The same person/family that owned the Chronosport brand back in the day, now owns the Momentum brand. So the Momentum Sea Quartz 30, in my opinion, isn't so much of an homage watch as it is a reissue. Momentum by St. Moritz Watch Co. has been around a long time and is primarily sold...in dive shops. They make true diving watches.
The Momentum Sea Quartz 30 is built to original specs taken directly from some original Chronosport Sea Quartz 30 watches that they still have in their possession, with a few upgrades: better lumes, better crystal, etc.
Here's the GQ story about it:

Don't sleep on this one, guys. It's a rare opportunity to have an authentic Sea Quartz that you can actually wear daily and dive with. I think TM would approve.
Cheers!
