Seagull Watch 70th Anniversary Celebration and New Beginning
On the winter solstice in 2024, Seagull Watch held a theme exhibition of its 70th anniversary and 70 years of watchmaking in the great Eastern country in Tianjin. It means a new beginning and a new journey.
The combination of ancient time measurement principles and modern watches
For 70 years, Seagull Watch has been committed to the precise measurement of time. With the passage of time, the principle of time measurement is no longer a problem, and Seagull Watch has begun to integrate these ancient time measurement principles into modern watches to show the inheritance and innovation of Chinese culture.
New watch design and functionality
For example, this watch has an official price of 3,980 yuan. In fact, the watch released on the Winter Solstice in 2024 had been released as early as 2023, but because of the 70th anniversary, it was placed at the press conference on the Winter Solstice in 2024.
The Twenty-Four Solar Terms and Star Calendar Watch 819.32.1069 can be said to be the most expensive watch of Seagull Watch so far. The star calendar, as the name suggests, is a calendar that records changes in the stars. It can not only calculate the 24 solar terms, but also record the positions of the stars in the four seasons in ancient astrological charts.
Watch materials and design details
In other words, this watch is not only a timekeeping tool, it is also an astrological calendar model that records the changes in the stars and the changes in solar terms. The official watch has a diameter of 42.7 mm and a thickness of 13 mm. It is made of fine steel and has a waterproof depth of 50 meters.
Except for the star on the Grand Feu enamel dial that indicates the position of the stars, the entire bezel and dial are decorated in blue. This blue color is also similar to the night sky in ancient astrological charts.
Consumer expectations of brands and product lines
The back of the watch is also printed with ancient horoscopes. The difference is that the word “Han” on the back of the watch is written in seal script. The movement it is equipped with is the ST2150 self-winding movement with a power reserve of 42 hours.
Of course, as a men’s watch, this size is a bit bulky for women to wear. Therefore, many buyers suggest that Seagull Watch can launch a women’s watch of the same style to attract more female consumers. But having said that, if Seagull Watch can link the twenty-four solar terms watch with the star calendar watch, it will definitely become a hit.
The historical and cultural significance of the Seagull watch
In 2025, Seagull Watch will celebrate its 70th anniversary, and the first watch was born in Tianjin Seagull Watch Factory in 1955, only 8 years ago. Therefore, 2025 is not only the 70th anniversary of Seagull Watch, but also the 70th anniversary of watchmaking in the great Eastern country.
Through the design of this watch, I believe the wearer can more intuitively feel the combination between the wisdom of ancient astronomy and modern technology.
Conclusion
Seagull Watch’s 70th anniversary celebration is not only a tribute to the past, but also a look forward to the future. This kind of watch design makes people feel the weight of culture and the passage of time. It is really worth looking forward to! How do you think Seagull Watch will develop in the future?
