Seen that today. Frankly, this leaves me somewhat puzzled. Where does that really leave HKED and the Sea-Gulls from Watchunique?
As Jody stated near the end: the presently existing re-issue manufacturers are what everybody thinks of when they think of "Seagull 1963s" although they are not, now because Sea--hyphen--Gull started to release them, the "official" 1963s.
That still leaves the question of Watchunique. It’s as if the 1963s in their offer weren’t from Sea—hyphen—Gull, even though they ARE that company’s European distributor, offering the Ocean Star diver and the Dong Feng as well.
Also, who makes the watches for HKED? Does Ed have them made by someone for his shop, or does he have a production facility of his own? Or both?
I always hope for the best. Experience, unfortunately, has taught me to expect the worst.
