    Prefer the 7120 to 8120 though, smoother winding.

    Very nice dial

    The original purchase was an 80's seagull but alas some toe-rag has had it away by all accounts So Jun said refund or take it off something else , so I bit the bullet and went for something I have always liked.

    I think you're right, GMT +8. Other watches in the same collection have scaling on parts of the dial.

    I checked it out at Beijing's website. They say the Architectural collection is inspired by the Great Wall. Interesting that the date in all of the pictures is set to 8.
    My collection of Vintage Chinese Mechanicals can be seen at myvcms.com
