New member - 1st Zodiac watch pics

[Manxman500]

Hi all,

Just joined the forum today and thought I'd post you some photos of the zodiac chronograph I have just purchased on the old flea bay. Perhaps some of you saw this watch advertised there. Please forgive me here, as I am a total noob when it comes to vintage watches and zodiacs, but I believe it is a 60s two register tachymeter chronograph zodiac. It was advertised as having a Zodiac 59 17 Jewel movement  (a Valjoux 7733 movement). I was a little suspicious of the dial with the white rectangular background around the Zodiac brand lettering, but in the end I just didn't care as I liked the watch enough and the movement looked sensational.

Please let me know your thoughts and if I you have any information on the model and or dial please let me know thank you.

Kind regards,
Charles

Thanks, yes love it too. There's a pic of a very similar two register in the gallery section but the zodiac branding doesn't have the white background...perhaps repainted on mine? Seems unusual that's all.
