Maanshan City #8 Clock and Watch Factory / 马鞍山市钟表厂
Sun Moon 日月 world timer watch
The center disc is the hour hand, with the red star indicating Beijing and the thick red arrow being London/GMT.
The time in the top photo is 8:26:24:x Beijing and 12:26:24:x London. The time in this next dial photo is 8:12:39:x
The two outermost circles contain the 24 times zones.
(Yes, I travel with this watch.)
The strap is vintage Chinese, too...

Very cool watch design and great pairing with the strap! 🤙
Even though completely illegible to me, I must say it's really cool!
I like this one a lot. Guessing these are rare, even on the Asian market?
They turn up occasionally on taobao or 997788, and I recall the prices weren't ridiculous. Yet. Rarer, yes, but not unobtanium. I have friends at Watchuseek that have them, too.
Wow this is very interesting. Very cool! I live in Hong Kong and we have a mountain and district called Maanshan but I know it is probably referring to another Maanshan on Mainland China...
