Hello all,
New user and first time poster here. I recently acquired a c.1950s Zodiac Rotographic with cal. 1361 automatic movement. The dial features an unusual crest:
• Blue circular field with stars around it
• White shield in the center with red radiating "spokes" (atom/radar style)
• Gold eagle perched above the shield
The watch is running and will be fully serviced. I believe this was a small-batch commission, possibly tied to a USAF nuclear/missile program or aerospace contractor, but I haven't been able to pin it down in the usual heraldry catalogs.
Has anyone seen this emblem before on a Zodiac or other mid-century Swiss dial? Any leads on the unit or organization it represents would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Daniel
You are correct but I have never seen that one before.
Thanks for your input and reply. Hopefully that means it's rarer than rare :D ha! I won't hold my breath though.
