Thanks to feedback from forum members (above), I have been able to do additional
research on identifying the 4 Chinese words. on the watch.

The Chinese characters of the motto on the RAF crest on the watch are, starting
from the right are :-
- First character is "Cheng" and means "a Journey";
- Second character is "Gao" and means "High or Lofty";
- Third character is "Zhi" and means "Purpose or Determination";
- The fourth character was identified as "Yuan" which means "Distant,
Remote or Profound".

The words are very small on the watch and for the 4th character, its hard to be absolutely
sure this matches (unlike the other three words). Its probably because I cannot read
Chinese!

I've put in another pic here, where that 4th character (on the far left) is a bit clearer
than in the earlier pics. (The other 3 words are clearer in the earlier pics.)




Thanks again guys for your help.
