Want to know the story behind this classic watch and how the upcoming replica combines classic and modern? Come with me to uncover the mystery of this watch heritage!

The inheritance of domestic watches

When it comes to the history of domestic watches, we can trace it back to 1955. In that year, the great Eastern country officially launched the first batch of self-made thin horse watches. Although the technology was not mature at that time, after all, we made it ourselves, which was of great significance at the time. After that, we launched some models one after another, such as the 114 diving watch launched in 1968, which can be said to be a milestone in the history of self-made watches in the great Eastern countries.

The Type 114 diving watch is divided into two versions. The first generation is a 29-jewel diving watch with SS2D movement, and the second generation is a 24-jewel diving watch with SS4C movement. These two watches were once only supplied to a specific level of official senior leaders, and ordinary people had no chance to see such treasures.

The reason why the Type 114 diving watch has become a classic is that it not only had advanced waterproof performance at the time, but also the accuracy of the movement was one of the best among domestic watches. Although the older generation of watchmakers still have many technical difficulties to overcome, judging from the performance of the 114 diving watch, we have made great progress in watchmaking technology.

The upcoming 114 replica model is more in line with modern people’s aesthetics. It is available in black, blue and black gold. It is equipped with ST2130 automatic winding movement and has 28 jewel bearings. The crown of the replica model adopts a screw-in design, which further improves the waterproof performance. The official data is 300 meters waterproof. This kind of performance is already quite excellent among diving watches.

More importantly, the 114 replica combines the classic design of the 1960s with modern watchmaking technology. This is not only a watch, but also a work of art with profound cultural significance.

The potential of the collection market

The Type 114 diving watch was first launched in 1971 at a price of 180 yuan. At that time, 180 yuan was equivalent to several thousand yuan today. It can be said that this watch was already a precious product among domestic watches at that time.

Now the price of the replica model we are about to launch is 4,980 yuan, which is already very affordable at this price. Moreover, judging from market feedback, the replica model also performs quite well in the second-hand market, showing good collection potential.
