Chronosport UDT Sea Quartz. Needs a new crown, crystal, battery, a good cleaning and over haul. I wouldn't get it PVD'd, just leave it the way it is. I paid $ 50, and when I got it, the battery was still good and it kept great time. I have always wanted one since I was a kid when I saw it for the first time back in the 80's. I got a min. quote of $149 for regular servicing, 75 for crystal, 45 for the new crown. It will probably need some additional cleaning, which means additional $$. Do you think it's worth it, or should I just save my money for something else?

I am also pretty sure I don't have the Breitling quartz movement. I think it was only in the original UDT model.
