Today we are reviewing a legend among watch enthusiasts, and one of the most affordable mechanical chronographs on the market, the Chinese Air force Seagull 1963. Created in the 60's as an asnwer to a request of the chinese government to have their own military watch instead of depending on other countries for supplying one, the 1963 chronograph was created using a swiss origin. Venus, one of very few Swiss companies manufacturing chronographs, was developing a new movement and offered their last generation the Venus 175 for sale, with all the blueprints, tooling and know how. They offered it to the Soviets, but they already copied an older Venus design when they made the Strela. So Venus turned to China, who at the time was developing their own chronograph, and they agreed to buy it. They slightly modified it, added a couple more jewels, and the legendari ST19 was born, and with a short stoppage in production, it has been the same as back then.
This variant of the watch is as close to the original as possible, design wise, as it has been upgraded with sapphire and an exebition caseback. However, you can still opt for the acrylic crystal and closed caseback if you want the real vintage experience!
