  • seagull 1963 chronograph - chinese air force re-issue

    bought one of these some years back for ~US$175... remarkably bang for buck, considering the base ST19 movement is a venus 175 at heart. a very, very long lasting and accurate watch if you service and adjust the watch before wearing it regularly.

    i've always regretted selling mine... then i saw a few on sale locally by private owners recently, and was surprised how much the price has increased. the sellers were wanting >$300 for it... (!!!)

    so i poked around the internet, and it seems like watchunique has the cheapest price for a "base model" shipped to singapore, so i ordered one from them for €172.59 (including fedex delivery).

    an extra display caseback costs another €25, which i didn't order as i prefer the thinner steel caseback.

    that should be ~SG$280 for a brand new watch from an authorized dealer. the acrylic 37mmm version is more similar to the original than the sapphire version.

    there's another spanish seller that sells regulated versions for about €30 more, if i remember correctly.

    Thomas Leung, the ex-seagull HK employee, sells them for US$260 (~SG$340) shipped to singapore by EMS... i believe this is with display back (no steel caseback included).
