A well finished case and quality bracelet add to the cost as well as sapphire crystal (the glass doesn't scratch easy). It relies on physics for energy, not batteries like a quartz watch, so the movement is pretty complex and thus $400. And has some water proofing. Not sure if you are able to use the chrono at 100m depth? But if yes, that adds $$. If you want cheaper chronos you can get mechanical quartz chronos (meca quartz) using a much cheaper Seiko movement that would still have that satisfying click when you engage the chrono function. For example Dan Henry 1962 Racing Chronographs are all about $250 and use the Seiko movement. If you just like the looks, the seiko sna411 is a quartz chrono, not meca quartz, that was $199 msrp, but because it may or may not have been discontinued, not sure if its officially discontinued, its prices has jumped up to like $399.

When buying watches at this price point you should think about resell value (most hold their value or go up if you buy the right one and look after it), with this having dated branding on it it will continue to depreciate.
