Title: Help needed with identification
Post by: Boenz on February 19, 2023, 04:16:49 PM
Hello everyone!

I have inherited a beautiful watch from my grandpa. Unfortunately, I know very little about it and hope that you guys can help me.

this is all I know about it:

My mother said that it is probably from the early 70s (and he was very proud of the watch, as it was his first automatic watch).

He always wore it with a leather strap, which unfortunately broke after all these years.

He bought it  in Germany.

Thanks for your help, it would be really awesome if I could find out more about this beautiful watch.

Nice watch in very nice condition. That will make a fine family heirloom! No much to tell I am afraid though. She is correct, that is a 1970's Zodiac Automatic Dress Watch.

Be sure to read this before you wear it though!
