Description

Originally created in 1961, the Zodiac Olympos is a line of highly creative watches featuring a signature “manta ray” case. Unique to Zodiac, this case design is asymmetrical across the horizontal axis of the watch, which creates the illusion of different length lugs above and below, and moves the crown off-center to two o’clock. The swooping lines of the case are at once elegant and energetic, giving the Olympos a distinct and exciting personality.

THE BACKSTORY

ZODIAC was built on value and volume during its golden era from the ’50s to the ’70s. The watches provided an affordable tool that could stand up to the circumstances the adventurous wearers often found themselves in, be it diving, racing, or crawling through the jungle. Modern ZODIAC doesn’t stray from that formula, and the watches put forth a very strong value proposition. Swiss Technology Production (STP), Fossil Group’s in-house movement manufacturer, supplies movements for many ZODIAC watches. In addition, the modern designs are tasteful and thoughtful interpretations of the watches that built the ZODIAC name and forged its reputation as a reliable tool watchmaker.
