ST230 Movement: Two Decades of Precision Perfected

At the heart of this timepiece lies the Seagull ST230 movement, a marvel of Chinese engineering born in 2003 and refined over 20 years. With 131 patents accumulated through relentless innovation, this movement embodies the pinnacle of Seagull’s craftsmanship. Tolerances as minute as 1 micron (0.001mm) ensure flawless performance, while hand-finished components—including perlage-decorated bridges and blued screws—reflect a dedication to horological artistry. Whether measuring time or marking history, this movement is a mechanical ode to patience and perfection.

1955-2025: A 70-Year Odyssey of Chinese Watchmaking

The dial’s “1955” and “2025” inscriptions at 11 and 1 o’clock are more than numbers—they’re milestones. “1955” commemorates the birth of China’s first wristwatch, the original Five-Star, while “2025” celebrates Seagull’s 70th anniversary and its leap into the future. This design encapsulates seven decades of innovation, from the Tianjin Watch Factory’s humble beginnings to Seagull’s global horological influence. The asymmetric placement symbolizes the unbroken journey from past to present, inviting wearers to reflect on China’s rise as a watchmaking powerhouse. Every glance at the dial becomes a reminder of resilience, progress, and national pride.

Five-Star Dial: A Constellation of Heritage and Modernity

The dial’s five-star motif reimagines the iconic emblem of China’s first wristwatch with contemporary flair. Arranged in a subtle arc, the stars are crafted using a multi-layer lacquering technique, creating depth and luminosity. Unlike traditional flat emblems, these stars cast delicate shadows under light, adding a dynamic, almost three-dimensional effect. This design bridges 1950s socialist aesthetics with modern minimalism, making it both a historical tribute and a modern statement.

Retro Caseback: Engraved Legacy, Limited Edition Pride

The solid caseback is a masterpiece of nostalgic craftsmanship. Using vintage stamping techniques, Seagull recreates the original Five-Star Watch’s textured pattern, overlayed with a “T”-shaped engraving symbolizing Tianjin’s horological roots. The outer ring bears “70th Anniversary” and the limited edition number, ensuring exclusivity. Unlike exhibition casebacks, this sealed design honors 1950s tool-watch practicality while adding ceremonial gravitas. Each caseback is individually hand-stamped, making every watch a unique artifact—a fusion of industrial heritage and collectible luxury.
