I recently purchased a used chonometer, after having debated buying Chrono vs. quartz. I will say that there were plenty of used Chronos to look at, but almost no Quartz used models. (The exception being a week old one I could have purchased for not much less than brand new).
Based on this experience, I believe there is a much smaller market out there for used Quartz models. I have also read on these board that the quartz models are less collectible.

: Bond Seamaster Pro, but I am pondering one
: issue: Is there a major difference in
: depreciation between the quartz and auto
: models? Would either model be easier to
