If anyone with any real power ever tries to use one of these extensively on things that actually matter, we are fuckin done as a species.

like, say, setting tariff policy for a major (if dying) superpower?

they’re doing you a favor anyway

annoyingly, actual coke in Mexico has both cane sugar and HFCS in it now

It absolutely could be, it came regulated to a couple of seconds a day. Going into the regular rotation for sure.

I don’t know what their current status is vis a vis the party. The Tianjin watch factory for sure started as a state enterprise in the 50s. Sea-gulls from the 80s and 90s (ST5, ST7) were still definitely in the People’s Watch territory, at the higher end. Of the modern movements, the ST19 chronograph movement is a direct descendant of the movements Tianjin made for the People’s Liberation Army Air Force in the '60s.

The Tongji standard movements are true people’s watch movements. You can get new old stock Shanghai 7120 watches for peanuts on aliex, and bare movements for even less. Merkur is an interesting aliex brand making new, vintage-inspired watches with those traditional movements in them too.

being 10 years off trend is pretty standard for Soviet watches haha

I’m a big Sea-gull head. The ST19 is beautiful. ST25 skeletonized movements are fun/hypnotizing. The ST2130 (ETA 2824-2 clone) has a 4 hz sweep and outstanding timekeeping stability.

I also have a soft spot for the 7120 / Tongji Chinese Standard movement, the first one I ever took apart. Very much like Soviet movements, designed to be good, reliable, and produced in quantities of millions.

For Soviet/Russian movements, shout out to the Slava 2427 with day and date, and to the Vostok 2431 with a 24-hour hour hand.
