Post by: Dutchsiberia on September 16, 2013, 11:08:59 AM
I got this nice zodiac, from Australia :)

Crown is very worn, and the crystal is incorrect, hour indexes are touching the glass. But still a great looking watch (I think) With the lume filled little tubes.

Movement is not perfect, but seems to be running fine, hacking works. It desperately needs a new gasket as you can see.

Yes, the issues it has are only "cosmetic". I can wear it and use it with no problems  ;D
