NWA! Seagull 1963 from AliExpress ⭐️

Should be straight forward, really. I was pretty enamoured by the sight of the movement, and at such a low price too. I decided to go with one priced at a reasonable $150, since I didn't want to splurge more money on what was more or less the same thing. I'm not gonna get into too much detail, it is what it is. It has its pros and cons, but I don't really care about its reliability and accuracy. It's a cheap watch with a really nice looking movement, and that's all I care about.

Beautiful !

The movement is fine,really good to look at and the QC is far far better than

most at this price point.

Got one for myself on the AliExpress 11.11 sale for cheap, thinking that if I didn’t like it I could just flip it for the same price. I was really impressed with it! Not only the movement is beautiful, but it feels dressy and visually interesting on the wrist. I really like wearing mine around.

The pairing with the included leather strap is sure the winning strategy in this case, much more comfortable and appealing than with the supplied khaki NATO.

I started off with a 42mm some years ago, then got a 40mm, now I have the 38mm. I have never had an issue with the movement, but I wear all my watches on a rota basis. Mine was running a little fast when I got it, so I regulated it, and it now runs runs within a few seconds a day. I think it's a watch every collector should have

Is yours the acrylic one?

Is yours the acrylic one?

I kinda did want the acrylic, but I ended up doing the boring thing and went with sapphire. I honestly wasn't too fussed about the crystal.

I just asked because I’ve read and heard that the dial color is warmer on the acrylic one

It is a fun watch to look at, isn't it?

I had a Seagoss 1963 from AliEx at one point but ended up selling it and getting a Sea-Gull 1963 instead.

Nothing was wrong with the Seagoss. But since I already have over a dozen Sea-Gull watches, getting another Sea-Gull branded watch just felt right.
