    Seagull 1963 in 40 mm case size !!!

    Hi all,
    on an italian watch forum I found the pics of the new Seagull 1963 re-issue, in 40 mm case size also with different dial combo/colurs.

    Has anyone here info on these new models ? Prices and where to buy them ?

    Thanks,

    Engi

    Yes, err.., but, you see, the dials, they are completely different. So in fact, two completely different watches. And ehm, for different occasions
    And as long as my total number of watches stays under, ehm, 100 or so...

    A panda! How cute!

    So I guess ebay will soon be flooded with used '63s in the smaller size?

    Thanks Engi for posting the new models. I searched the Sea-Gull HK & Tianjin websites and couldn't find them. I suspect they may have been contracted with a special buy from Sea-Gull.

    Engi, can you post a link to the thread? Did the original poster indicate where he got the pictures or the origins of the watches?

    thanks,
    gigfy

    I contacted the person that I have been in contact with before at Sea-Gull and asked him about the two models. His answer was very simple: "we don't sell them"

    I wonder who actually does....

    May I ask, is your contact at Sea-Gull HK or Sea-Gull Tianjin? Same company but still different entities.

    cheers,

    Ah, that makes sense. It's another Sea-Gull Hong Kong special. They've done a few limited runs of 1963-style chronos for foreign clients, including 'private label' pieces. No doubt these new larger ones are either another special order, or else Sea-Gull HK are making general changes in line with customer feedback. Whichever it is, there would be no involvement by the Tianjin office.

    I have contacted a person that works for Sea-Gull HK and I hope he can shed some light on the new models.

    It's interesting that there are such differences in models available by Sea-Gull Tianjin and Sea-Gull HK
    HK have some good looking models (even the similar model to the 1963 re-issue). Too bad these are all not displayed at the store in Kowloon (HK), but what is mainly displayed is what Sea-Gull Tianjin carries

    I just noticed that Sea-Gull HK actually does carry the 1963 re-issue!
    (at least on the website)
    +
    the pictures from their store opening does not look at all like the store that I have visited. I actually just realized that there are two stores in Hong Kong. One on the island and one of the Kowloon side; I have only been to the store on the Kowloon side. Will see if I can make it to the store on the island this weekend
