Title: What does that really cool looking catalog say?
Post by: Butch on December 10, 2014, 03:14:30 PM
On www.ZodiacCatalogs.com (http://www.zodiaccatalogs.com) we have this one catalog in Spanish that has a bunch of REALLY cool stuff in it, but it is in Spanish. We just picked up the English version of it!!! I have scanned it and sent it over to SW to convert into a viewable book.

You know what? There IS really cook stuff in there to know about as a Zodiac collector! Well maybe you can tell, I'm pretty excited about this.   :coolsmiley

SW will reply here once it is online.

OK, evidently >I< am the only person that does not speak Spanish here. (Old fart, sheesh.)

The Spanish catalogs were supplied by our own VZ Team Member L. Ocle (aka Luis). And for that I shall always be grateful.

Me, too. There is some really great stuff in those Spanish catalogs.

Yes! I really liked how they wrote this all around the quality that went into the Zodiac watches at the time when the new/remodeled factory was opened.

Did you see the fans? I thought that a neat idea for testing automatic movements.

Pretty standard winders for volume testing--I've seen pictures in other factories. I was interested in the description of adjusting the movements in six positions, which makes sense for movements that came a bit later that were guaranteed to run within a minute a month. And the geared regulators--my 1968 Zodiac has a Triovis micro-regulator, which is even more precise.
