Usage

Search for standard or detailed watch listings for any query, limiting results to, for example, 25 listings. All results will be retrieved if no limit is provided, and they'll be sorted by new listings first.

import chrono24

rolex_dj = chrono24.query("Rolex DateJust")

# Search for standard listings
for listing in rolex_dj.search(limit=25):
    print(listing)

# Search for detailed listings
for detailed_listing in rolex_dj.detailed_search(limit=25):
    print(detailed_listing)

Note: When using these functions, be cautious not to overwhelm Chrono24 with excessive requests. The standard_search method consumes 1 request per 120 posts retrieved, while detailed_search utilizes 1 request per individual post. Avoid flooding requests to maintain a balanced usage of the Chrono24 service and prevent any potential access limitations.

Filters

You can refine your watch searches using various filter criteria, as well as define year ranges using min_year and max_year. Pre-defined filters include options such as case material, bracelet type, movement type, and more. These filters and year constraints can be applied when creating a query object.

How to Use Filters

To use filters, specify them when creating a query using the filters argument. You can pass a single string, a list/tuple of filter keys, or include year constraints using the min_year and max_year parameters:

import chrono24

# Initialize a query with a single filter
steel_rolex_dj = chrono24.query("Rolex DateJust", filters="steel")
# Initialize a query with multiple filters
steel_auto_rolex_dj = chrono24.query("Rolex DateJust", filters=["steel", "automatic"])
# Initialize a query with year constraints
new_rolex_dj = chrono24.query("Rolex DateJust", min_year=2010, max_year=2020)
# Combine filters and year constraints
new_steel_auto_rolex_dj = chrono24.query("Rolex DateJust", filters=["steel", "automatic"], min_year=2010, max_year=2020)

Available Filter Categories

The available filter categories are:

• Case Filters: Material, diameter, and more.
• Clasp Filters: Clasp type, material, etc.
• Condition and Delivery Contents: Item condition, delivery options, included papers/box.
• Dial Filters: Dial color, numerals, etc.
• Location Filters: Country-specific filters.
• Movement and Functions: Manual, automatic, complications.
• Other Filters: Miscellaneous filters such as water resistance, glass type.
• Seller and Listing Type: Dealer, private seller, new/used.
• Sort By: Sorting options like 'Newest listings first', 'Price ascending', etc.
• Strap and Bracelet: Bracelet material, color, strap type.
• Watch Type: Sports, dress, luxury, and more.

Finding Filters

You can view all available filters using the chrono24.filters.show() method:

import chrono24

# Display all available filter categories and keys
chrono24.filters.show()

This will print a categorized list of all possible filters, helping you decide which ones to apply to your query. If you're not sure which filter to use, you can also search for filter keys using the chrono24.filters.search(query) method:

import chrono24

# Search for filters related to 'steel'
chrono24.filters.search("steel")

Example output:

Search results for query 'steel':

Direct matches:
  - gold_steel_band
  - steel_band
  - gold_steel_color
  - steel_band_color
  - gold_steel_clasp
  - steel_clasp
  - gold_steel
  - steel
  - gold_steel_bezel
  - steel_bezel

Fuzzy matches:
  - steel
  - steel_band
  - gold_steel
  - steel_clasp
  - steel_bezel

This output shows the best filter keys matching the query 'steel', divided into Direct matches (exact or close matches) and Fuzzy matches (similar but not exact matches). Use these filter keys to refine your watch search in chrono24.
