That is a 1970's ladies bangle style dress watch. Mostly Zodiacs ladies watches are not collected so the value is what a buyer is willing to pay for it.

Hello, I recently bought a Zodiac watch but couldn't find any information about it. Does anyone have any information about its date of manufacture and value? Thanks

I kind of like the band, very early 70s.

Nice Box too!

Received a new Zodiac in mail today.

Butch has designated it as a Dress watch.

Hoping to someday learn if there was any significance in the 2 looking like a Z and the 8 looking like an X.

I think this one deserves a nice brown leather band.

What a coincidence! Like you said, better that you did not buy it for the Sea Wolf but I have to say that the other watches definitely did not disappoint. I enjoy wearing the Zenith, Certina and Eterna Matic watches a lot and they were all in good working order.

You're not the first! It looks great.

I was bidding on this lot as well :-). Went to check it out IRL and intended to sell most watches on and keep the most interesting (to me) ones. But I wasn't willing to go as high as you did, particularly as I was especially after the Zodiac. Reading this thread I feel even more pleased with my decision. I hope you are happy with the lot, there were some really nice watches in there. Lauritz is history now, good thing too, their way of handling watch auctions was appalling, their price evaluations blowing in the wind, sometimes not realizing what was fake or not (or franken). They stopped paying sellers their profit and are now bankrupt, scumbags. I once bought a lot of NOS watches through Lauritz including a few Zodiacs, they mailed them  thrown into the same plastic bag in a box, guess what the cases looked like on arrival.... Obviously I returned that lot. Interestingly a few weeks later the most attractive (again to me) of those landed on the counter of a watchmaker friend of mine who judged it "beyond repair". Lucky again, I guess.

I have most of an original JB Champion bracelet for this guy but one of the end links is not original, and I'm paranoid using it because of the value.  So, I'd thought about getting a different bracelet, wore it on a NATO for a while, but thought why not do something different and vintage themed.  This is a rally Olangapo band from Jaffy Jurado, it is surprisingly comfortable and I like it.  In retrospect I might have asked him to make the outside match the outside of the lugs but the chunkiness is kind of authentic.  I know not everyone is going to like it and that's OK.  And now I can wear it without worry because an Olangapo band needs patina.
