All original. I am thinking that is from the late 60's as it is pre-SST. I think there was also an SST version with a Day and Date and the high beat movement.

Actually I have one exactly the same...ok I'm lying.

Nice watch Butch, its funny you mention the SST version as I was looking at one yesterday. Link here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VINTAGE-ZODIAC-SST-36000-AUTO-GENTS-WATCH_W0QQitemZ270522573606QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL?hash=item3efc66e326

As usual my lack of knowledge on these older ones keeps me from pulling the trigger ???

That is the one I was thinking of! Thanks man.

Yeah, ignorance is a bad thing. I would rather pass than guess, spend money, and then find out it is not original. I do not think I ever bought something not original, but HAVE mistakenly passed on ones that were, but I was unsure of.
