Chrono 7030
Friends I'm back again with another GP watch: Chrono ref. 7030
This chrono version is quite rare because has been produced
around year 2000 in a very few numbers of pieces
and discontinued in 2002 but is difficult to find out any other information about it.
I think the reference 7030 was the last chronograph of the 7000 line
with tri-compax subdials at 3,6 and 9 and engraved bezel,
came with several dial version but I think the best are this one black dial
and gold subdials and the white dial with blue subdials version.
The movement is GP 2280 (base caliber ETA 2892-A2
with Dubois-Depraz module 2021)
The watch and the bracelet are made of well polished steel
so the watch shines under the light with a sparkling effect.
The bracelet is a little bit different compared to the others from 7000's series
with bigger inner links squared instead of rectangular.
As usual any further information will be very appreciated.
Love the 7000 Chrono!
Your version is indeed one of the last, maybe the "final edition" as it is popular with cars nowadays.
The last 7000 appearing in the catalogue was in the 2000/2001 catalogue and was indeed the 7030.
Do you have any info on your watch with the gold subdials? Some of those variations often were only produced for the Japanese market.
Thanks,
CC
This sone
comes from the Italian market, I know it was sold in Palermo (Sicily) in 2002.
I found it on the internet and the owner sent me the originale purchase invoice.
Maybe white dial / blue was only for the Japanese market because
sometimes Japanese timepieces sites on the internet sell this kind
but never from europe or other states
