Tianjin WuYi/DongFeng/Sea-Gull | Audemars Piguet | Tag Heuer | Rolex | Gucci | Patek Philippe
I have been a watch lover my entire adult life.
I collect watches for various reasons. Sentimental value, originality, design, technology, culture, fashion, investment, practicality, etc.
My collection is eclectic. Some cost more and some less. Some even cheap. I appreciate them all the same.
Watches are men's jewellery. I wear different watches and different bands on different occasions and wearing different clothes.

I am digging that dial. Nice!
By the way, I am pretty sure this Aesop contains a Hangzhou 3 series movement, but not a Sea-Gull.
Yes, getting a completely clean vintage 51 is extremely difficult. They are 50-60 years old after all.
About $160 CDN shipped.
It's good to hear about your opinion. As I have always felt, a watch must "vibe" with the wearer.
I have many Sea-Gull watches in my collection. I am always interested to see how other people feel about theirs.
Great article. 👍
I could be wrong, but I thought it was Premier Li Xiannian (李先念) who approved DongFeng to be renamed to Sea-Gull for exporting.
