Welcome to TRF and thanks for the pic. They're cool looking watches, and big too, about 45mm or so, right? Congratulations and best of luck with it

They are quite good value watches with the ETA 2824-2 movements.Something on lines of the Seiko Monster.I like it, and the orange dial version as well, quite a large watch,myself prefer the black bezel, over a plain steel one.In the UK rubber strapped models are around £250 while the bracelet one is closer to £300,but if you shop around a bit less..Great pictures.

Thank you all, for a very warm welcome!

I ordered the Zodiac directly form Zodiac... Alas no discount...
But I do think the watch is worth every penny, only thing lacking
is the Lume on the dial, so-so at best... The Lume on the hands
is "Great" as good as my Orange Monster!

45mm and plays well on the wrist. Timing is at +7 seconds so far...
I expect the timing will improve...

The watch did arrive with a timing slip... Timed to Four positions with all the rates, ampiltude and beat... I thought that was very cool!

Thank you again with the warm welcome!
