Chronext Shop/Listings Scraper

Overview

This actor scrapes luxury watch listings from Chronext.de (https://www.chronext.de/kaufen). It extracts detailed product data, handles pagination automatically, and outputs structured JSON for each watch.

Key Features

• Extracts comprehensive watch details: name, price, SKU, condition, specifications (brand, model, reference, diameter, year), and image URLs.
• Automatically navigates through multiple pages of listings.
• Configurable limits for the number of items to scrape and concurrent requests.
• Includes proxy support (via Apify Proxy) for reliable, large-scale runs.
• Manages request retries to handle temporary failures.

How to Use

1. Configure the actor's input parameters (see Input section below).
2. Run the actor.
3. Retrieve the scraped dataset in JSON, CSV, or other formats via the Apify platform.

Input

Configure the scraper using these input parameters in a JSON object:

{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.chronext.de/kaufen" }],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxConcurrency": 2,
  "minConcurrency": 1,
  "maxRequestRetries": 8,
  "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

• startUrls: The URL(s) to begin scraping. Default is the main shop page.
• maxItems: Limit the total number of watches scraped.
• maxConcurrency / minConcurrency: Control the number of parallel requests.
• maxRequestRetries: How many times to retry a failed request.
• proxy: Enable useApifyProxy for better reliability and to avoid IP blocking.
