Zodiac
Super Sea Wolf 53 Compression (Ref. ZO9286) Black
Though the brand technically started in 1882, it wasn’t until 1908 that Zodiac became the official name of the Le Locle, Switzerland-based watch company.
Originally known primarily for their innovative movements and pocket watch designs, Zodiac became a highly respected name within the sports and diving watch ranks in the ‘50s and ‘60s. This was mostly thanks to models like the iconic Sea Wolf, one of the first watches purpose-built for diving and other underwater pursuits, and which became favorites among early SCUBA divers and American soldiers in the Vietnam War.
In 2015, the brand decided to dig into their back catalog and re-release a new Super Sea Wolf collection as an homage to those early trailblazers.
Inspired by the original Sea Wolf's release date in 1953 this Super Sea Wolf features a stainless steel case and uni-directional K1 crystal top ring, black and white matte dial, stainless-steel 5-link bracelet, and C1 SuperLuminova hands and indexes, combining Zodiac's penchant for super unique style with its timeless roots. Add to that, the STP 3-13 automatic movement and sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, and you've got a total package at an unbeatable price.
