{"product_id":"seagull-1963-air-force-cream-42mm","title":"SEAGULL 1963 | Air Force Cream 42mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eSame cream dial as the smaller Seagull 1963, in the biggest case the family comes in. 42mm across, 48mm lug to lug, 22mm between the lugs, which is a wide strap by the standards of this watch and part of why it wears the way it does. If the 38mm disappears under a cuff, this one does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold-tone numerals at the even hours, gold wedges between them, blued hour, minute and counter hands, a red central chronograph hand. Running seconds at 9, timed minutes at 3. The red star and 21 ZUAN sit under 12. There is no date and nothing on this dial glows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back is where this version surprises you. Behind the glass sits the hand-wound ST1901 with its blued screws and gilt wheels, and the faceted steel ring around it is engraved for the air force with a 2013 fiftieth anniversary marking and an individual number. The maker publishes no edition size, so treat that number as a serial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e21 jewels, 21,600 beats an hour, about 42 hours on a full wind, with the blue swan neck regulator. Wind the crown every morning. Factory-original Seagull, sold as it arrives, on a 22mm black and olive striped nylon strap. Delivery is 2 to 4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 42mm (excluding the crown)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug to lug:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.70mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished 316L stainless steel, two round pump pushers, fluted pull-out crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boxed sapphire, raised and curved\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaseback:\u003c\/strong\u003e Exhibition back in a faceted polygonal frame, engraved with an air force marking, a 2013 fiftieth anniversary line and an individual number\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seagull ST1901 (ST19 family), hand-wound column-wheel chronograph, 21 jewels, 21,600 bph\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegulator:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue swan neck, visible through the caseback\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower reserve:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 42 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChronograph:\u003c\/strong\u003e Central seconds hand in red, 30-minute counter at 3, running seconds at 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cream, applied gold-tone Arabic numerals and wedge markers, blued hands, red star and 21 ZUAN under 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLume:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 ATM, fine for rain and hand-washing, not for swimming\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22mm black and olive green striped nylon with polished steel buckle and keepers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIn the box:\u003c\/strong\u003e Outer sleeve, foam-lined tin box, tag, warranty card, manual and authenticity card\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 to 4 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 42mm too big for an Indian wrist?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt depends on the wrist, and lug to lug matters more than diameter. At 48mm the lugs stay short for the diameter, so it sits flatter than the numbers suggest, though the dial reads large. If you are unsure, the same dial exists here in 40mm and 38mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is engraved on the back?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn air force marking with stars, a 2013 line marking fifty years of the design, and a number unique to the watch. The maker never publishes how many were made, so we do not sell it as a limited edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it a mod?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, it is not a mod. Everything else we sell is assembled here in India on Seiko movements. This one is made by Sea-Gull, and it ships in its own box exactly as it reached us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I swap the strap?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, and the lugs take a 22mm strap, which is easy to find. The nylon it ships on slides out over the spring bars without tools.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seagull","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52837569888388,"sku":"SG63-42-AF","price":29500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/5034\/7908\/files\/42mm_Creame_Dial.png?v=1789678738","url":"https:\/\/timelabsco.in\/products\/seagull-1963-air-force-cream-42mm","provider":"Timelabs Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
