Seagull 1963

It finally came. Before Christmas I ordered a sugess version of the seagull chrono. I really like the way the panda looks. Over all very nice finishing and the dial looks clean and well printed. The white creamy part of the dial has sandpaper texture a nice touch for this price range. Over all Iam very surprised with how well the watch is built. The strap is shit but I expected it for 220$. 

Really cool watch definitely takes care of the itch of having a chronograph, i still might buy a certina chrono some time. I like the case back.

I bought mine off of eBay, they had a big batch of different colour schemes and shapes. They come on quite often

I suppose for some it can be annoying but I don't mind it. I'd like my crown to be a bit more clicky but it's still fun to wind

There is a official seagull store and then there is poljot store. Now I don't know if seagull officially does a panda version but sugess has it, there even is a sugess watch online store.

Oh ye definitely. I it's a well constructed watch and it looks good. I have many times thought what is the merit of realistic costs that go into the price of expensive watches. I understand that there are luxury watches hand made in batches of 3-5 will cost tens of thousands of dollars if not hundreds just like with cars. But I always wondered when it comes to brands like Rolex that are made in factories and use mashines why are they so expensive when you do not need a master craftsman all the time. 

This rant is completely off the topic, but I hope with how Chinese will get better at making watches it will drive down the price of sole watches because with how the pricing is now it's crazy stupid. I understand the useage of expensive materials etc. But oh we
