Vintage 1982 Chronosport Champagne Edition Dive Watch Print Advertisement — Original 1980s Watches Ad
Approximately 8 x 11 inches.
This vintage 1982 Chronosport Champagne Edition original print ad showcases three gold-plated dive watches — the Atlantis (Ref. 3403), Mini Atlantis (Ref. 3903), and LCD-equipped UDT (Ref. 3401) — arranged against a sun-drenched beach at golden hour, with a starfish as a natural prop. A collectible ad capturing the early-1980s dive watch boom when quartz accuracy, screw-down crowns, and mineral crystals were marketing gold. Chronosport, distributed through St. Moritz Watch Inc., represents an underappreciated chapter in affordable professional dive watch history, making this magazine advertisement a compelling find for vintage horology collectors.
