Background information on this: about 12 years ago a customer traveling from China visited me in my watch sales department in Munich and I happened to see this watch on his wrist (the 38mm version No. 7001) - because I was immediately impressed by this watch I now imported them directly from China, which is not easy due to various formalities and above all the rarity (no mass-produced goods!) of this model.
By 1961, the Tianjin Watch Factory was already known and famous in China for producing the first Chinese wristwatch. This watch manufacturer was then commissioned to produce the first Chinese aviator chronograph for the Air Force of the People's Liberation Army. By October 1962, the factory had produced three batches of this pilot's watch. At the end of 1962, 38 experts from various fields came together (Chinese industry minister, flight commanders, members of the military ...) to test the watch. After that, the Tianjin Watch Factory was officially commissioned to produce the watch. In 1963, this watch manufacturer was already producing and delivering 1,400 pilot's watches to the Chinese Air Force.
