Post by: goodtimes688 on January 21, 2011, 10:43:38 AM

Just wanted to pop in and say "Hi" and what a great forum, lots of good peeps here! I'm new to vintage watch collecting and would love to add a few Zodiacs to my collection...

I've got my eyes on the SST and Corsair...The SST is hi-beat with 36000pbh :o, correct? Also, I couldn't find information on the greenish-black dial on the Corsair...marble is it? Can't wait to get my hands on either of them! Thanks and I look forward to your replies! ;D

Welcome to the world of Vintage Zodiac collecting!

SST is the hi-beat 36000. I am wearing one now.

Make sure to post pics when you get one in.

Thanks for your patience...finally got a chance to take a pic of my Astrographic. The watch runs well, power reserve indicator is fairly accurate, and keeps good time! Love this watch! ;D

p.s...got a little crazy with my vintage watch collecting (started collecting a few months ago), including some Helbros, Wittnauers, Bulovas, Walthams, Girard Perregauxes, Lord Elgins, a Favre Leuba, Wyler, Gotham, etc... =p

You said Astrographic but meant Autographic. Not nit picking, just saying is all.

Got a little anxious with posting the picture, thanks for the correction Butch! ;D
