Seagull
Seagull's hand-wound column-wheel chronograph movement descended from the Venus 175 via the Tianjin factory's acquisition of tooling and plans in the 1960s. It is one of very few column-wheel chronographs available at budget prices, making mechanical chronograph ownership accessible to enthusiasts on any budget. The characteristic column wheel provides a crisper pusher feel than cam-actuated alternatives, and the movement has developed a cult following in the watch community.

The Studio Underd0g Watermel0n (Gen3) is widely praised for its novel, playful, and colorful design, often described as a fun, juicy, and fresh choice perfect for summer and as a conversation starter. Owners report outstanding build quality and a timeless design, with the strap also feeling premium. The manual-wind Seagull ST1901 movement is noted as mechanically interesting, with one owner reporting impressive accuracy of 1-3 seconds per day. However, one owner found the watermelon colorway became tiresome and felt the finishing was not very good, leading to a cheaper feel over time. The winding action is described as silent and smooth, though some find the lack of tactile feedback disconnects from the expected winding experience. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Studio Underd0g Watermel0n (Gen3) a well-executed, irreverent, and fairly priced chronograph with a unique design.
