Zodiac Watches - GMT to Vintage Diver to Dress - Let's see what Zodiac is up to...

Today we are introducing Zodiac watches into the store. We are proud to be an authorized Zodiac watch retailer, and as so, I'm going to go over a few of these great looking models in today's video.
The first feedback I got - "A few of the models have mind-blown everyone in photography who have handled them in person." See the entire collection at: longislandwatc...

Thank you for watching!

[@JasonCaringella]

Congrats, Marc. I love Zodiacs' design language. I have 3 Zodiacs and 7 Islanders, so needless to say, both brands are two of my favorites! Keep up the great work 👍

[@islandwatch]

Wow, that's awesome. Thank you!

[@stevedriver1476]

Great Watches, the greeb and orange really is unique,, its about time we got some colour in our lives. thats a beautifull watch, Steve in Australia

[@subsilkdj]

I own the two tone - something worth pointing out the butterfly clasp is spring loaded. As your wrist expands so does the bracelet! No need for micro adjust in heat and super comfortable. Love this solution. Also Zodiac consider the STP movements in house as they are designed and assembled in the same place as the watches shown here - it's shown in the Zodiac factory tour on KZbin 🙂....Well done Marc. Great brand addition.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks for the clasp tip, much appreciated! And likewise on the STP.

[@El1988Che]

You forgot to mention that those butterfly clasps are spring loaded! It's a pretty neat feature that you don't see on many bracelets anymore. If your wrist flex too much, instead of pinching, the bracelet clasp expands couple of millimeters.

[@islandwatch]

Indeed I did. Thanks for bringing it up!

[@johnsneade2995]

The olympos is gorgeous

[@MementoMorituri]

Glad Zodiac is getting some much deserved respect. I wish you carried Certina. It's a Swiss brand with a long and distinguished history. Their watches are great, especially among afficionados , but nobody carries them in the states. Many of their models are moderately priced. It might be worth your time to give them a glance if your looking for new brands.

[@islandwatch]

Maybe in the future, thank you!

[@danspanos]

Zodiac makes some excellent watches, and the brand has some real history! Love their use of colors! Great to see you carrying them, Marc!

[@islandwatch]

Thank you

[@Barefoot12]

I prefer vintage anything. Then have them serviced or repaired if it doesn't work. I found a square mystery dial at a estate sale for 60bux in 1990. It loses a minute a day keep great time. I have worn it occasionally when I don't have a fone around for 30 years. Had it serviced for 250. The watch guy was shocked that i wear it just because of rarity. It's worth a few k but that's not going to keep me from wearing it. I am buying a couple seiko divers to have around for more frequent wear. I won't buy a new zodiac just too attached to the vintage when I can find them. I don't collect watches and I don't wear them because I have blue collar gig. But this zodiac is a really cool to have found.

[@DiscoSticky]

Super excited for this, always loved their design language. Congrats!

[@islandwatch]

Yes! Thank you!

[@redletterl78]

The SSWs have pins and collars. A bit finicky and easy to scratch the bracelet if you rush things. Extremely comfortable when sized right!

[@timetowatch_francois]

Great move! Love that you added Zodiac to your roster 😄👍🏼

[@islandwatch]

Me too

[@shanelaake5855]

I LOVE the colorways and overall design of Zodiac, and I know where I'm going buy my next watch!

[@islandwatch]

Awesome

[@milaweitz]

just watched the Zodiac movie (2007) a few weeks ago, where also appeared the Zodiac watch :-)

[@islandwatch]

Perfect timing

[@RedwoodAggie]

It's good to see Zodiac increasing their retail availability. I like those new 300m divers, and hope they'll come out in more colors. I love that they have so many 40mm models. As you said, it's such a great size. I find 38 too small for a watch with a dive bezel.

[@islandwatch]

Indeed. Thanks Sean.

[@georgeliquor2931]

Well done to the owners of Zodiac, keeping the brand and the design ethos alive, great watches

[@adventurepromo]

Awe, I really appreciate the back story. Well done! Onward and upward!

[@vladpiranha]

I've been looking at Zodiac lately! I'm glad to see LIW is a supplier now. They've been making dive watches longer than Rolex, if I'm not mistaken.

[@islandwatch]

Since the 1880's

[@shakespeare_hall4788]

Yes Zodiac Beat Rolex in the "Voyage to sea what's at the Bottom" See what I did there?

[@chrisbluma7942]

The Olympos is gorgeous in every variation. Gotta get one.

[@yoinkhaha]

Awesome!! Now that you’re moving up in the world, can you please, please make like Chris Ward and improve your logo so I can finally buy an Islander? I’m begging you! Would love to have that watermelon Zodiac…

[@islandwatch]

CW's logo is an improvement? I've never seen a logo more polarizing than theirs, other than mine and Phoibos.

[@yoinkhaha]

@@islandwatch I mean the new twin negative-space crosses, as opposed to their previous one which is just their name in a boring font. Not their old, old one, the "Chr.Ward" one, which I thought was better than the plain text "Christopher Ward" one that came after. But check out their new crosses with the negative space, I think that is an improvement to the "Christopher Ward" ... it seems like they are easing it in. Anyway, I mean no offense cuz I love your stuff, but your current logo is two marks, the simplest circle with the simplest triangle in it, and not simple in an elegant way, and I just think it doesn't do the quality of the watches justice.

[@andrewhannam.]

What! You sell Zodiac watches now! Great addition. Surprised you didn't mention your history with Squale and the beginning of online selling.

[@islandwatch]

Thank you!

[@marcusrawlinson5024]

Hey Mark, I'm so pleased someone else shares one of my peeves. It's so annoying not being able to orientate the dial of a watch at night, it makes me think the people who designed the watch don't actually use them so for me it is a deal breaker.

[@troublemakingpups5787]

The Zodiac's are stunning! I was going to suggest you carry this brand and here they are. I guess great minds really do think alike. 😉🐶

[@islandwatch]

Thanks Brandr

[@islandwatch]

Eh, Brande

[@4evalost948]

That is one beautiful zodiac love that blue almost metallic dial loved your new TGV collab video always so informative.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much!

[@miliusrex11]

Love ‘em…I have two Zodiacs (but three Islanders!)

[@watchrolling]

Marc, an excellent addition to the lineup.

[@TheDanibus]

Way to go Marc! Awesome looking watches.

[@swilkobarfingtoniii1642]

So happy for you! ZODIAC and ORIS have always been in my favorite brands. Even when I was a kid in the early 70's I'd see their ads and I'd crave those 'badass' looking watches. Bold. Different from the conservative brands. Even the ZO-9744 you show here is dressy and understated, but it has design language that sets it apart from every other watch out there. Stunning. Congratulations! I know how you feel about how this moves your watch business into a new level. A feather in your cap, to coin a phrase.

[@islandwatch]

Yes, thanks so much!

[@coreydavidson8221]

Good get, Marc! Love what they’re doing and glad to see your business continue to grow.

[@islandwatch]

Much appreciated!

[@geraldnemeth7944]

Nice looking watches, no doubt 🧐.

[@cliffmoores8455]

Awesome. Congratulations, Marc. Well deserved.

[@islandwatch]

Thank you so much 😀

[@peetfj]

Too difficult to read the date on the Olympos blue model, ZO9711. That watch with the blue/aqua color combo would be awesome in a No Date version. The watch would look much more symmetrical.

[@Nefville]

Zodiac is a perfect brand for LIW, its a real watch nerd watch brand. I don't think you're going to have any trouble selling them, just like a hypothetical mint green SARBLanderJust. That would sell too. Congrats Marc.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much. Mint is coming.

[@miss2369]

That blue dress watch os gorgeous

[@islandwatch]

For sure.

[@ron5545]

I've been looking at that Sea Wolf Compression in stainless. Nice to know you sell them now.

[@MghHauer]

zodiac it's cool!

[@anonymous9394]

I'm waiting for Zodiacs x LIW collaboration🤞

[@kyledriscollmusic]

current zodiac has the bravery to try cool designs and colors, I wish all brands were this courageous

[@islandwatch]

Indeed!

[@calypso22]

Nice video, Marc. Interesting design, but black hands on a black dial had my old eyes struggling. :)

[@pipenyc977]

Hyd Mark, I hope all is well. Keep thriving you making amazing timepieces. I’m down in Florida dealing with this hurricane situation but I’m more afraid of not getting the ISL-127 then the actual hurricane

[@islandwatch]

Be safe!

[@pipenyc977]

Thanks Mark we were lucky

[@johnsrabe]

Congrats. Lovely watches.

[@islandwatch]

Thank you

[@hernantesler-mabe2400]

Very nice Marc. Congrats!

[@islandwatch]

Thanks!

[@vce2103]

They are very nice watches indeed, but still prefer the Squale dive watches… especially the sub 39 models and 2002 models 👍🏼👍🏼

[@islandwatch]

Great models

[@derbagger22]

I absolutely adore those Olympos dress watches. The case, the design, the font is perfect. I just wish it wasn't named Zodiac.

[@islandwatch]

Sorry!

[@JoeMenjivar]

Love Zodiac, wish they'd bring back the little Sea Dragons

[@islandwatch]

Maybe one day

[@puffymarshmellow3149]

I really like the gold Olympos

[@islandwatch]

Ditto! Classy.

[@postilla4618]

Possiedo 2 fantastici Zodiac il modello pro diver COSC black ed il World Time PANAM e posso tranquillamente dire che rappresentano la vera tradizione di un brand che ha fatto la storia dell'orologeria come ZODIAC Swiss Made 👍👍👍

[@richardtwyning]

Sorry Marc, I've got to now ask, does it come in a 46mm 😉 I've got a 7.25 inch wrist. I'd love to see a 52mm Emperor tuna Islander based on the Seiko NH34 😉 Love the bright green Super Seawolf 👌

[@Andrew.W75]

Great move Marc, genuine reissues of vintage watches like like the Seawolf are not something you've been offering up until now so it should bring you business from new customers!

[@islandwatch]

Thank you

[@KakashiHatake-ou7mp]

03:31 Are those scales engraved in the back? Didn't see that on the other models. Do they represent anything specific about this model?

[@sabeaniebaby]

Iwas just looking at an Accutron Legacy online, and while the designs are very similar I definitely prefer the Zodiak. How will I make this happen????

[@islandwatch]

Tough decisions

[@allyw7405]

The one in the thumbnail’s my favourite colourway.. where is that at?

[@islandwatch]

longislandwatch.com/zodiac-special-edition-super-sea-wolf-aquamarine-dream-zo9283/

[@shanelaake5855]

With the world time watch...you mentioned the ability to read three time zones, but I think that's mistaken. Can't you tell all 24 time zones at once if you line the bezel up (an added step)?

[@islandwatch]

Good point.

[@reaganm.8818]

Haha is no one going point out how he said "speaking of KILLER dive watches" to transition to talking about the Zodiac watches? Like the Zodiac Killer?

[@Sergeant_Fury]

The Green Lantern, cucumber, watermelon watch. I don't know. I look at it and I can only think of, well, watermelons and cucumbers. You should call it the Green Lantern.

[@islandwatch]

Good name

[@GJames007]

That date window is horrible. Can’t even read it. That is a nice watch though.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks for watching!

[@zillsburyy1]

i got their 53 skin diver

[@islandwatch]

Great looking watch

[@LilYeshua]

Silver hands are hard to see unless you orientate the watch at a certain angle

[@islandwatch]

True.
