Zodiac watches
In 1882, Ariste Calame founded a workshop for the production of special watches in Le Locle, Switzerland. As the company flourish the founder's son, Louis Calame, was sent to watch-making school and took over the business in 1895.
The first flat pocket watch was launched to the public. Two year later, the brand designed and produced the first automatic sports watch and then produced the popular Zodiac Autographic. The Autographic was self-winding with a power reserve gauge, an unbreakable crystal, a radium dial, and was water and shock resistant.
In 1953, Zodiac launched the Sea Wolf. The Sea Wolf model was one of the first serious diver's watches manufactured and marketed to the masses. Later on Zodiac launched the Super Sea Wolf. The patented crown/stem system and improved case back design increased the water pressure rating to 750 meters.
Zodiac Watches - Today's modern choice
Today's Zodiac Watches are updated with bold modern colours, high-quality mineral and sapphire crystals and ultra-reliable Swiss quartz movements. While the rugged vintage designs such as that found in the V-Wolf collection, modelled after the original Zodiac Watches dive watches, have been a hit with men, women who nowadays are looking for large, playful looking sport watches love the colourful rubber-strap models found throughout the Zodiac Watches collections.
