Just picked this one up>>>>70's Zodiac Chrono

[bhj2013]

Looking for any information possible on this watch.  It's a Zodiac, 1970's, Chronograph, and has it's original box and price of $250.
I've been told it contains a Heuer 12 movement....Not sure how accurate that is.  It's an automatic, 2 register w/ date, & Winding crown at 9 as opposed to being at '3'
Any information would be much appreciated.

That is from the 1970's and can be found in the catalogs on ZodiacCatalogs.com. While Heuer, and many other companies used the same movement by Val Joux, the movement in that should be marked Zodiac caliber 11 I think. If it is not it has been replaced.

Nice watch.

Wow, that looks brand new! I've never seen that dial color combo before.
Congratulations

There is actually a NOS one on the 'bay today, but the price is probably double what it should be. Can't see anyone here buying it.

It actually is essentially brand new...Just a few dacades old 

The case/bracelet are perfect, and it has it's box etc....
Thanks for all the good information!

You got an awesome deal! That get up is worth $1,200-$1,500 to the right buyer.

Hi,
$250 is the ORIGINAL Price of the watch...From when it was new.  If only I had picked it up for that...Would have been an Awesome deal!  On the side of the Outer box is the price sticker for $250 along with the details of the watch.
