In fact, it is said that a watch is among the first things that a person will notice about you. This is why you should take more time when deciding the watch to wear.

The history of Zodiac Watches

It has long been known that Switzerland has a rich history in the watchmaking industry. The company dates back to the late 19th century when an artist by the name Calame, who came watch-making family and decided to craft his own brand. Having grown up watching his father make watches, Calame did not hesitate to carve out his own masterpiece and it was through this that the Zodiac Watches Company was born. When he first registered the company back in 1908, he called it Ariste Calame that was later changed to Zodiac Watches. The founder believed that every watch they make should be of the highest quality and this is why he choose the materials used to make the watches as well as managing the production process from start to finish. He believed that it was through this that his objective of making quality and dynamic watches would be achieved.
The owner’s son would later take over the company, having attended a watchmaking school, and joined in the rich list of watchmakers in his family. Using an authentic Zodiac caliber 1617 technology, the company made the 1stpocket size watches that were made available to the public in the late 1920s. From there the company started a long list of top-quality watches which include the automatic sports watch (which was a first in the industry) and the famous Zodiac Autographic. The latter was popular because it was made with unbreakable crystal, a radium dial, a power reserve gauge and it was resistant to both water and shock.
Later on, the company made other types of watches that took the world by storm. One of the most notable mentions was the Sea Wolf watches that was specifically made deep-sea diving. The Sea Wolf Brand and its successor, the Super Sea wolf, are still considered the most classic dive watches ever made.
