This is a Seagull 1963 from Tianjin China. A reissue of the watch worn by pilots of the red army back in the day. This is a 38mm case. Hand wound and 18mm lugs. Goes with a NATO, vintage leather, thick leather and anything else in between...not too expensive and really not a very common watch. Comfy and to my six and a half inch wrists, a perfect size...

Joking aside, the Hamilton Intra-Matic looks nice. And there's the tri-colour Zenith Chronomasters with their El Primero movement, which is somewhat of an icon

Other than the above, the last one I can think of is Lemania Chronograph movement: calibre 5100.

Well, Philip Dufour went for Lange's Datograph, so you may want to consider that watchI just checked out both, really not bad.

Yes, there are not so many reliable and durable chronograph movements in market nowadays.Found some brands using this movement but very few Lemania watches... Understood they are more of manufacturer of movements?

Omega - a moonwatch because of the history. I personally prefer the sapphire sandwich, sporty look
Zenith - get a used El Primero at a good discount off RRP. Another watch with plenty of history, sporty look
JLC Master Chronograph - another watch to get pre-owned at a good discount, dressy look
Rolex - get the 116523 or 116503 two tone models. Less money and you get some gold instead of just steel and ceramic

Stick to the moonwatch..
Hesalite https://www.omegawatches.com/watch-omega-speedmaster-moonwatch-professional-chronograph-42-mm-31130423001005
Sapphire https://www.omegawatches.com/watch-omega-speedmaster-moonwatch-professional-chronograph-42-mm-31130423001006
The problem with Omega is they milk the moon watch thing too much with all the different models and many "sides of the moon" models and limited editions.. all at highly inflated prices.

But sometimes, this is good. With many variants, you can choose different materials/ colours of dial, hands, straps, gold, stainless steel,...etc. :thumbsup:
