About Zodiac: Since its founding in 1882, Zodiac has been dedicated to the precision and craftsmanship associated with Swiss timekeeping — with a rebellious spirit. We have consistently pushed the limits of design innovation, evolving our style and driving our timepieces to become more technical and dynamic. Our pursuit to create quality, precision Swiss watches made to be worn and lived in has been the fuel for some of our most beloved collections. As we create the next generation of tool, dive and dress watches, our engineers and artisans are already hard at work challenging boundaries and breaking rules.  

With a rich heritage to draw from, Zodiac is singularly focused on designing watches based on our most beloved vintage models and staying true to the original creation. Each watch design maintains the same sense of scale to keep the finished product as historically accurate as possible, then we add contemporary updates and improved functionality. If you held an original and a current model side-by-side, you should be able to see, and feel, the extension from one to the other.
