Ever since I saw Chris's, I have been looking for one. Kinda surprising, because it's really not my style. They don't come up often, but hopefully I'll have the funds when it does.  |

In the old days there was rumor that Zodiacs of that style case / generation were available in fossil outlet store for $50 or something like that.
The Fossil outlet store was 3 stores over from the Seiko outlet store in Pleasant Prairie WI so I stopped in one time.
No Zodiacs but I walked out with these 2 for $30 each.
I went back a few years later and they had nothing but overpriced junk.
I haven't been monitoring the price of those but good luck if you really want one.

Yeah, it could definitely be a Fossil, that's what surprises me. I know they make it in a orange dial as well, but I definitely prefer the blue. Regarding those Adidas watches, what kind of movement do they have in them? |

It was no rumor.......... I once had all 3 variations of that same Zodiac and all were purchased at the Fossil outlet store in Carlsbad Ca. about 10 minutes from my home! I paid a whopping $69.00 each for them. I was a regular customer at that store and the Mgr. would even give me a 10% discount on them. I stupidly sold my entire collection of Zodiacs which was VERY stupid on my part because they now sell for 3 times or more for what I paid. One day I was hankering for a new watch (Zodiac) and went to the store to see what if anything new they had and virtually ALL the Zodiacs were gone as they had discontinued carrying them and sold them all off at 50% This model which is EXTREMELY hard to find and RARE was one I owned! It was an automatic and in fact was the only Automatic Zodiac I owned! What made it so rare was it was a ltd. edition and had the Bronze/Copper dial!  A better pic.............It's called the Astrographic model and came in Blue, White, Black and the Rare copper................  |

Nowadays we are all about GIRTH, not BULBOUS HEADS.
Everyone can send me US$1 for teaching you a new word.
