Before Tianjin Sea-Gull, there was Dongfeng. Before that, there was Wuyi, with the earliest branding being a 51 logo. The lower printing on this early 1960s example has faded, but the dial still shows well. The 62-A movement shown is from another example, but the same as this has.

Modern but discontinued Lao Luan "shanghai Military Use" wristwatch -- a cool homage of a watch that never existed, but could have ( somewhat short story in reply). The strap is NOS vintage estimated roughly 1970/80s.

SM1AK Shanghai Wristwatch #4 Factory = Diamond Brand / 785 date code so May 1978 / 152 so steel case - SM1AK was a multi-year Chinese award winner for performance, and deserved them. One of the three survivor movements exempted from the conversion to the Tongji/Standard movement.
