those watches are beautifully charming but theres something you have to know about them

Due to past circumstances most 1963s you see on the market are licensed/unlicensed/clones. Its quite a murky zone

Seagull themselves now make their own 1963 out of their tianjin factory but those cost a fair bit more than the previous unofficial watches mentioned. (Like $450 vs $180). They have an official aliexpress store. Theres even a new limited edition 'plan B' 1962 (not 63) seagull on offer.

The real seagulls have a number on the back. And they come purely with acrylic and not sapphire. They also do not have a display caseback.

The non official 1963s come in a range of colour, sizes (38mm to 42mm), with a choice of sapphire or acrylic, normal display back, extra large display back, or no display back. All this at a lower price.

So it depends on do you want the "'real deal"" or not. Maybe it can be argued that does it really matter? its still a ST19 and made in the same country.

JOMW has a good video on the whole matter

Is having the dials evenly spaced out supposed to be better quality?
