A Mid-Century Gem
Founded in 1882 in Le Locle, Switzerland, Zodiac quickly earned a reputation for precision timekeeping, innovative design, and robust build quality. Best known for its Sea Wolf dive watches, Zodiac also produced elegant dress watches during the mid-20th century that showcased its horological craftsmanship in more understated forms.
This 1959 Zodiac Dress Watch is a beautiful example of the brand’s quieter elegance from that era. With its slim gold case, steel case back, and manually wound movement, it embodies the timeless style of post-war Swiss watchmaking—crafted during a golden age of mechanical wristwatches.
Why You’ll Love It
• This piece is a true survivor from 1959, featuring a 34mm gold case with a polished steel back — a practical yet charming configuration for the era.
• The subtle small seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock adds visual balance and vintage character.

• The case back features a period inscription, adding a touch of mid-century history and romance to this piece.
• Comes with its original Zodiac-branded strap and original presentation box, making this a complete collector’s set — very rare for a watch of this age.
• In excellent condition, the watch shows careful ownership and light, honest wear.
At just £950, this is an affordable way to own a slice of Swiss watchmaking heritage from one of the most respected names of the mid-20th century.
Iconic Status

These models, while less widely seen, capture the same Swiss precision and elegant design sensibility. Zodiac watches have adorned the wrists of military personnel, adventurers, and style aficionados for decades. Their dress watches were popular among those who wanted Swiss quality in a sleek, formal package.
