The new piece has the classic cream dial, with with rose gold-toned numerals and indices to match the colouring of the bronze case. With the standard bi-compax chronograph, there is a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and small seconds at 9 o’clock, alongside the central chronograph seconds hands and four blue hands for the hour, minute, small seconds, and 30-minute counter.

Coming on a woven textile NATO-style green strap with red detail and rose gold-plated buckle, the Seagull 1963 Chronograph 60th Anniversary Edition is limited to 750 pieces with an RRP of EUR 399.
