Why We Love it

 The Zodiac Sea Wolf is among the first purpose-built diving watches ever produced, alongside such legends as the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, the DOXA Sub 300, and the Rolex Submariner.

Released in 1953, the Sea Wolf was from the outset an affordable skin diver meant for the masses. However, today’s Super Sea Wolf is a chronometer-certified monster that’s water resistant to 200m! Handsome, robust, well designed, and affordable, it deserves to be on the radar of any serious diver or watch aficionado.

This particular piece, dating to the 2020s, has so much of the vintage charm of a 50s or 60s diver combined with a contemporary, almost streetwear vibe that makes it a totally unique package. It makes extremely interesting use of colour, with teal markings on the bezel and date window, red lume plot surrounds, a yellow outer scale, tri-colour handset, and a charcoal checker dial. 

If you're a sneakerhead, then this amalgamation of tones and patterns should be familiar. This is an uncommon aesthetic for a wristwatch, and that what we love about it. Despite its good looks, the 21st century dive watch accoutrements aren't lost in its design with a 200 meter water resistance rating and robust case build.

This piece is part of a limited edition of 182 pieces made for Worn & Wound. The watch is outfitted with a sapphire crystal and signed crown. 

This watch comes complete with its box and papers and a number of other exciting pieces of memorabilia. For the lover of dive watches, this piece is an incredible offering

Brand Story

+
Zodiac in its current guise produces affordable tool watches as part of the Fossil Group, who thankfully appreciate the brand’s heritage and wide appeal. However, the Swiss-founded firm is notable for one of the most important developments in modern watchmaking history: namely, the commercially available dive watch.

Though preceded chronologically by the Omega Marine of 1932, the 1953 Zodiac Sea Wolf — which debuted alongside the more famous Rolex Submariner and Blancpain Fifty Fathoms that same year — provided the benchmark for contemporary dive watch design. Slightly later, its availability at overseas PX’s (post exchanges) on American military bases entered it into Vietnam War-era horological lore.

Zodiac was well placed to present such a watch on the international market, having developed flat pocket watches in the 1920s, early automatic watches in the 1930s and power reserve complications in the 1940s. In fact, the company’s horological prowess extends all the way back to 1882, when founder Ariste Calame opened a watchmaking workshop in Le Locle, Switzerland. More complicated watches followed, including the Aerospace GMT, which featured a bi-directional, two-tone bezel and a GMT hand in the vein of its contemporary dual-time brethren from the likes of Rolex.

The company’s chronographs from the 1960s — including the wildly complicated, Valjoux-powered triple calendar — are no less notable. Available in black or white “panda” or “reverse panda” dials, many of these chronographs are more affordable alternatives to offerings from larger, blue-chip brands such as Heuer and Breitling.

Though values have increased somewhat over the past five to 10 years, vintage Zodiac remains a refuge for those interested in genuine, purpose-built tool watches developed for working professionals at prices that don’t break the bank.
