Sorry for my ignorance, Jim!
Seaguls are Chinese watches? How old are they? What kind of movement do they have? Where do you get something like that?

Sorry again, this time for all the Q's.

Cheers,

Axel

Btw. looks like a great, but a little bit boring collection;-)

No problem :) here I show you a few more pics then tell me its boring eh lol.
Naw they are Swiss made. Similar to the Sicura but with day/date. here I will give ya the run down! History goes the guy who owned Cordura is same guy who restarted Breitling, something like that would have to look back now. And now some other pics for ya. Few Different variations of the A. Shield movement. The one 2nd from the right in the last case style. Some have Sunday in red. Some set the date by flicking between 11-12 others each hour you turn backwards advances one day, stuff like that. They came with the tropics straps as original but really take a 22mm well, lugs seem to be 21mm.

70's
chunky yet conforms to the wrist
blu dial that turns purple under most indoor lighting
well done dial and chapter ring
lume that still rocks
a very 3d piece
day/date auto A. Shield movement
funky seahorse back lol

Bottom pic is my beater piece but shows the dial in the correct light, he does not sit in the family pic :(

Thanks for all this information Jim!
Very nice Design. I like those hands.

Don't get me wrong with my "boring" statement, I myself have some doubles in my watch collection (and some variations of the Tissot PR516).

Cheers,

Axel
