Chinese Military Re-Issue by Shanghai Watch Factory

This is a re-issue of the watch issued to Senior People’s Liberation Army Officers (Divisional Commanders and higher) in the early 70s. Made by the same company as the original but with a current 22 Jewel movement instead of the discontinued 29 Jewel movement. Original issued watches are extremely rare and nearly impossible to find.

-Auto mechanical 22J movement
-Hacking
-Quick set date
-Domed acrylic crystal
-Large screw down crown
-Screw down caseback
-Rotating bezel
-Stainless Steel case and Oyster style bracelet with signed locking clasp
-36.5mm case, 41mm with crown, 19mm lugs, 14mm thick. It wears like a Submariner.
-I have swam and showered with mine with no issues. However, there is no factory WR rating so you do so at your own risk.

$165 + S&H
paypal@japanesesword.com
Estimated Shipping & Handling Rates from Shanghai:
US $35
CND $50 via FedEx or $20 via Airmail
Europe $40 via FedEx
AUS $30 EMS
Asia $20 EMS

Factory MSRP is about $200, so figure I could get this to most in the WUS community for under that shipped.

If S&H turns out to be less than quoted, i will refund the diff, if more you owe me a beer if we ever meet in person :)

Please send a paypal with your Confirmed address and phone number for $165+S&H. Please send questions to alfredytan-at-hotmail-dot-com, i do not check my PMs here often.

All watches will be shipped from my home in Shanghai via Postal Express Mail or FedEx, which for some reason is stupid expensive going to Canada, so Airmail to CND is an option for $20 but might take a long time with no tracking and at your own risk.

Stock is limited to what I picked up at the factory. So, whoever sends me the paypal first gets the watches.

About me:
I am a watch collector from Seattle, currently on assignment in Shanghai and developed an interest in vintage Chinese mechanical watches. I run a hobby web business www.JapaneseSword.com (thus the paypal account address). You could also check my bay reference under Kenshi. Yes the prices went up, the factory raised their prices as they told me they would when I bought the first batch.
