A Very Cool Zodiac Automatic Super Sea Wolf (75 ATM) on its Original Bracelet in Superb Condition with a Black and Neon Orange Dial, c.1970 Zodiac watches, a revered name in the Swiss watchmaking industry, trace their origins back to 1882. Founded by Ariste Calame in Le Locle, Switzerland, Zodiac began as a family-operated business committed to crafting precision timepieces. By 1908, the brand had registered its name and showcased its innovative spirit with the introduction of the Zodiac caliber, marking its dedication to high-quality watch movements. The 1950s saw Zodiac cement its place in horological history with the launch of the Sea Wolf, one of the first purpose-built dive watches, which became a beloved tool among recreational divers and military personnel alike. Throughout the ensuing decades, Zodiac continued to innovate, creating bold and reliable watches, like the Astrographic, celebrated for its space-age design and unique time display. Today, Zodiac watches are prized for their blend of heritage, craftsmanship, and modern style. They remain a testament to the brand's enduring legacy in the world of watchmaking. What's on offer We are delighted to offer this ultra cool and totally retro Zodiac Super Sea Wolf for sale in such fantastic condition. The dial is in superb shape, just look at those chunky neon-framed hour markers and corresponding hands - the dial is complete by a subtle date aperture at 3 o'clock. The watch offers much in both style and substance and looks great on the wrist - and at 43mm it certainly has a presence! The bezel and case are in really good shape as is the original Zodiac folding clasp steel bracelet. The design of the rotatable bezel features a fascinating mechanism. To rotate the bezel, it needs to be pressed downward initially. This rotatable bezel includes an insert made of Bakelite. The initial 10 minutes on the bezel are both emphasized and divided into individual minute increments. A really well-preserved vintage dive watch with bags of character. Blink and you'll miss it, don't sleep on this one!
