TOPHILLMens Watches Chronograph 40mm Seagull Movement 1963 Pilots Mens Racing Chronograph Hand Wind Mechanical Watch Original ST1901 Movement Sapphire Luminous Pilot Wristwatches

I've had this watch for a little over a week and I'm quite happy with it! The Seagull chronograph movement is based on the old Swiss Venus movements that one would find in some vintage Breitling column wheel chronographs, and when I say based on I mean they bought the rights to produce it from Venus in the 60s and have been making them ever since. There are some points where a careful eye will spot some places in which they've cut some costs, the "blued" screws appear to be painted and not actually heat blued, some of the brass parts appear to be plated instead of solid, but the watch itself keeps great time, the pushers that operate the chronograph portion have a nice feel and a satisfying "click" when pressed,the dial is uncluttered and easy to read, the smaller orange pointers in the sub-dials can be a little hard to read against the black in low light but that could easily be due to my eyes. The only real gripe I have is that the lume is a bit weak and fades very quickly even after a full day in the sun, but that's a minor thing for me, especially at this price point. In my search for this watch I found a ton of watches 2-3 times the price using this exact movement with slight variations in case material and color but this one has just the right mix of form and function, not over or underdressed, just a solid functional watch that works as well with a suit as it does with casual wear. If you are used to more modern movements bear in mind that there is no "hacking" function which means it continues to sweep as you set the time so you can't ever set it dead on at the top of the minute, if you're used to vintage watches that's kind of par for the course. The larger second hand that is engaged with the chronograph can be stopped and restarted with the top pusher like it should. Overall I think this watch is an incredible bargain and I'd definitely buy another!

Absolutely love this watch. I’ve always loved the old Breitling Top Time chronographs, but not quite enough to pay the premium to own one. This watch is an obvious nod to those vintage Breitling designs, but not in a faux or shady way. Outstanding value for the money, especially when on sale. The dial detail is quite exceptional for the price point, and it looks absolutely fantastic on a quality, rally-style leather strap corresponding with the design’s era.My particular watch keeps exceptional time, running extremely accurately at around +2 seconds per day. For a manual winding watch, this is FAR beyond the accuracy needed. The chronograph functions flawlessly, with crisp engagement and reset. Flawless zeroing to this point on reset, as well. The chronograph pushers have good firmness and adequate “snappiness” in use. My one quarrel is that the crown is fairly small for the stiffness of the winding mechanism, making hand-winding require a bit more care than on my manual wind watches with larger crowns and/or a lower tension in winding.Overall, this watch has been such a surprise favorite that I’m considering breaking my own rule about owning multiples of the same model to get it in one of the colorful variants. Especially considering the price point, I can highly recommend this watch for those looking for a vintage-inspired chronograph.

I have many expensive Swiss chronographs, and I wanted to add to my collection without breaking the bank. I'm impressed with this watch; the pusher action is crisp, and the movement is nice to look at. Overall, the quality is very good for the price paid, and if anything, the watch could easily cost a few hundred more and would still be a bargain. You're getting cheap Chinese labor and a watch with a very low profit margin for the manufacturer. The choice of colors is nice, I went with the blue dial variant and it's easy to read at a glance. I've heard others say the power reserve doesn't really keep the watch going for 48 hours, so I'll have to see if that's true. Overall, a nice watch and an exceptionally good value for the money.

Excellent value for the money. It's has a Seagull knock off of a Swiss movement, but you get the performance of the Swiss movement at a bargain basement price. It keeps accurate time, and you have to remember to wind it. My only dislike is the chronograph pushers are a little too close to the crown for easy winding, but it's not a deal breaker. I recommend replacing the cheap silicone strap with a better quality leather one. I replaced it with a 20mm Getalia leather strap, available on Amazon. In summary, order the watch now, while they're still cheap!
