{"product_id":"seagull-1963-air-force-cream-40mm","title":"SEAGULL 1963 | Air Force Cream 40mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the plain one. Cream dial, gold-tone numerals at the even hours and gold wedges between them, two black-printed counters, blued hands and a red chronograph hand. The red star sits under 12 with 21 ZUAN beneath it, the jewel count in the movement. Nothing on the dial is there for decoration, which is why the 1963 layout has survived this long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Seagull 1963 was drawn as an air force chronograph and this 40mm version keeps that dial with a modern case. Polished 316L steel, two pushers at 2 and 4 with the crown between them, a boxed sapphire standing proud of the bezel, and a glass back engraved 1963 with stars and Chinese characters around the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is the hand-wound ST1901, 21 jewels, 21,600 beats an hour, about 42 hours from a full wind. The source says it carries the blue swan neck regulator. Give the crown a wind when you put it on. Upper pusher times, lower pusher clears. There is no lume on this version, so it reads by daylight only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFactory-original, sold as it arrives from Tianjin Sea-Gull, on a 20mm olive green nylon strap.
