Title: New member introduction
Post by: VinSW on February 03, 2020, 01:01:16 PM
Hi everyone, My name is Jim ,my screen name is VinSW, and live in Washington State,USA.
  I have two  1960's Seawolfs(or is that Wolves). My first one is currently with BWG and is almost done being serviced.:)
  I also just purchased a Zodiac Incasecurit Hermetic off ebay and will be receiving it this week.
  Some of my other interests in addition to vintage watches include Hydroplane racing, boating and restoring vintage outboard motors.
  Zodiac watches got my attention in a rather different way. I watched the movie" Zodiac" based on the true story of the San Francisco area killer from the mod 1960's- mid 1970's. In the film the detectives are questioning their prime suspect at his workplace. The detectives notice a Zodiac Sea Wolf  on his wrist and ask to see it. The watch is shown close up. I saw the SW and thought "I gotta get one of those"(or 2 so far).
   I am very glad i found this forum.
   A big thanks to Butch,moderators and our members who participate in this informative website.
Jim

VinSw, welcome!
I whole heartily encourage you to post often regarding current and possible future Zodiacs.  Forum members here love to help regarding thoughts on condition, authenticity and frequency of observed availability.

Butch, I never knew that!  I guess you learn something new everyday. 

Here's something some people may not know;

The Sea Skate is better looking than the Sea Wolf! 

It's true, I just did a google search on the Sea Wolf and Sea Skate fish and egads, it's not even close.
