Unfortunately Ed not selling the version I like

Ya the rest like Long Island Watch & Poljot24.de are more expensive and also don't have the 2-liner version

Yar, I personally think it's best to get from a reliable and responsive source. If you look at Watchuseek, most people are recommending to get from Ed, because aftersale service is good. But of course he does have a premium over Watchunique..

Long Island Watch is also reliable, but his price is even more expensive..

For a few extra yuans, the supplier would happily engrave the logo for them :s13:

really bulls!t ttm lah! so fake!

needs 2 yrs to gather feedback? they smoke the very dope they're pushing ah?

they don't even need to copy an already deplorable brand that ripped off established designs.

they just buy cheap, ready-made, off the shelf parts from china, laser their own logo on a plain case back, mix and match cheap straps & flog them off to the clueless.

Saw panda with blue hands in WUS forums also, so I think Ed can produce those combis as well.

For some strange reason I also prefer the version with the red star and Chinese script. That one is also 21 zuan, right?

Sorry, being a noob here - this Ed being referred to is a well known mod-er?

On the topic of kickstarter. Any chance Elshan will do a chrono? :)

will consider if he uses a column-wheel, vertical clutch chrono movement (eg seiko 8r chrono) and priced aggressively. :D

or if by miracle of miracles, he can source & equip them with lemania 5100. well, a man can dream, can't he? ;)

A good automatic chrono movement is not cheap to start with. Pricing wise might not be favorable for the mess (pun intended) market!

机械计时机芯基本上分为三种：
1。手搅上链款
2。自动上链款
3。双膜组合款

导助轮（colum wheel）机芯，市面上流通最多的手搅机芯，为大陆制“ST19”机芯。苏联制机芯3133型号与衍生机款见不到导助轮。
流通量较高的自动机芯，就数精工NE88机款了。装有导助轮的瑞士机芯款，多数只能在高级錶款中见到。一般采用775x/SW500机型的錶款都少有导助轮。就连廉价上海致敬/克隆机芯也没有内置导助轮。
至于双膜组合，更是不用看了。底机多数是基本三手机芯，计时模组目前无法融入导助轮构造。

价格- 以产量，成本来看，大陆机芯作为起步采用部件是最便宜了。要不然采用上海机芯的本地品牌MOVAS怎么赚？便宜归便宜，不容忽视的，是往后的保养与维修问题了。。。

ZELOS要节省成本，如果采用大陆机芯，就要考虑消费者，支持者日后的 保养/维修 可行性问题。一个品牌，一朝成败就要看在制作与标价上如何叫 消费/支持者 如何感觉C/P值得存在了。。。

Er, basically, from what I know - Thomas is a guy who used to work with Seagull HK, which sold the 1963s. After a while he left, and then hooked up with Ed to sell a new version of their own still using ST19s, but quite sure the case/assembly not done by Seagull itself.

Nearly all the sites talking about 1963s agree that the hked version done by Thomas and Ed is the nicest in terms of finishing, design aside.

It is unclear to me whether the stereotypical 1963s come directly from Seagull (red star, Chinese script, etc), actually. Seagull has its own reissue which looks quite industrial/modern rather than vintage.

维修是中国机芯的一大问题。不过不知道铁达时它们用的中国机芯它们怎么维修。
