Drawing inspiration from ancient Chinese astronomical traditions, this timepiece embodies the essence of celestial observation that guided timekeeping in imperial China.

Its design pays homage to how ancient scholars tracked the movement of the Big Dipper (Ursa Major) to determine seasons, dates, and the 24 solar terms—transforming celestial mechanics into horological artistry.

The multi-function sub-dial integrates three concentric rings, each inspired by ancient Chinese celestial timekeeping:

◎Innermost Ring (Blue): Depicts the Big Dipper (Ursa Major), whose celestial movements guided traditional time observation.

◎Middle Ring: Features the 12 Traditional Chinese Hours (Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai), marking the dual-hour divisions of the day.

◎Outermost Ring: Displays the 24 Solar Terms (Lichun, Yushui, Jingzhe… Dahan), China’s lunisolar calendar system that harmonizes agriculture with celestial cycles.

The watch case’s flank is engraved with China’s Twenty-Eight Lunar Mansions, grouped by their four celestial guardians:

◎Azure Dragon of the East :
Jiao (Horn), Kang (Neck), Di (Root), Fang (Chamber), Xin (Heart), Wei (Tail), Ji (Winnowing Basket)

◎Black Tortoise of the North :
Dou (Dipper), Niu (Ox), Nü (Maiden), Xu (Emptiness), Wei (Rooftop), Shi (House), Bi (Wall)

◎White Tiger of the West :
Kui (Legs), Lou (Bond), Wei (Stomach), Mao (Hairy Head), Bi (Net), Zi (Turtle Beak), Shen (Orion)

◎Vermilion Bird of the South :
Jing (Well), Gui (Ghost), Liu (Willow), Xing (Star), Zhang (Spread), Yi (Wings), Zhen (Chariot)

Each constellation’s name reflects its ancient astrological symbolism, mirroring star maps used by Tang Dynasty imperial astronomers.

The Seagull ST8242 Tourbillon Movement
Featuring an off-center axis design, this mechanism abandons the traditional regulator lever. Instead, it achieves precision timekeeping through two innovative systems:

◎Micro-adjustment screws along the balance wheel rim for fine-tuning

◎Rotatable eccentric weights that shift to calibrate the moment of inertia

This patented technology (Patent Name: Adjustable Balance Wheel for Watches, No. ZL200920250256.2) enables superior accuracy by directly controlling the balance wheel’s rotational dynamics

◎Synthetic Sapphire Crystal Dome,Mohs hardness 9 scratch-resistant surface
