Thanks to Markus ("cnmark"), I now have my Seagull reissue of the 1963 Chinese Air Force chronograph.  The manual movement is a Chinese update of the Valjoux 22 from the fifties.  The strap also just arrived - - from Time Factors.  Only had time to snap a few pics at my desk (it's after midnight).  More photos to follow next week.
