·Do we have Zodiac fans here?
Here is my modest collection: a couple of Zodiac watches.😀
Big fan of vintage dials like this. This one was found hardly working, and even today I had not serviced it. Initially the crystal was scruffy and I thought it was dreadful. So I took a chance and had it polished, and was surprised that the dial hadn't been that bad. The crown pulls out, so something must be loose inside. Still, the thing winds well and keeps robust time. Might post a movement pic if anyone fancies.
I like the embossed logo and swiss, instead of printed. The honeycomb centre is a bonus, and the dial is domed shaped although I am tempted to call it 'pie pan'😜
The second hand definitely's got it after all these years...that arrowhead is just unique.
Aerospace GMT: had a lot of fun playing with the bezel, which I believe to be original. The dial is sunburst. On the whole I feel the design to be incredibly balanced. Good mix of ruggedness and interesting bits and bobs like the red GMT hand and that second hand.
Thanks for reading!
