I see these two as being similar, but there's really no beating the vintage designs. Yeah, I know they're different models, but hopefully you get my drift. jjl5LBR9(OqTwzg~~60_57.JPG)  |

Nothing beats vintage for me. Cars, watches ... you name it. Seldom does a modern design catch my attention. Usually if it does its because they're paying homage to the old school.

Its got to the point that almost ALL of the new watches look the same! As long as I have the funds for Vintage I'll go that way! |

Used to be you could tell what a car was just by looking at it. Now you need to look at the badges to figure it out. |

Car's have really lost their soul over the past 20 or 30 years. I just can't see that hardly any modern ones will become classic's or collectable in the future. Love the first Zodiac, second one's a bit of a hot mess though.  |

Maybe some of the Shelby Mustangs, the MOPAR SRTs and maybe some of the current Camaros. |

(I'm a Limey ). I'm sure there are some Merc's, Jag's & BMW's that will become classics one day, but your everyday modern family car is just an anonymous box IMO. But back in the day, who'd have thought that a car like this could become collectable ?  |

Second one is zodiac in name only. It's basically a Fossil. |

Does anyone know what happened, after Fossil acquired Zodiac? Did they keep manufacturing the Zodiac where it was, or just bring everything into Fossil?
