SMOOTH~MID 60s ZODIAC AEROSPACE GMT 752-934 BAKELITE

Regular price $0.69 Sale

FOR SALE IS AN ABSURDLY NICE ZODIAC AEROSPACE GMT WITH RARE GREY/BLACK BAKELITE BEZEL. 

 

  • CASE: BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL SUPER SHARP STAINLESS STEEL CASE MEASURING A NICE 36mm. CROWN IS AN APPROPRIATE REPLACEMENT BUT UNSIGNED. I LOVE THOSE GROOVY CHAMFERED LUGS. ALL THE LINES ARE SHARP AND CRISP ON THIS BABY WITH JUST SOME SHALLOW SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE BUT NO EVIDENCE OF EVER HAVING BEEN POLISHED. LOOK AT THAT NEAR MINT BLACK/GREY BAKELITE 24 GMT PIECE OF ART. SHE ROTATES WITH JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF FRICTION. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS THE BEST OF THE AEROSPACE VARIANTS. 

 

  • DIAL: DOESN'T GET MORE LEGIBLE AND FUNCTIONAL THAN THIS GLOSSY BLACK DIAL WITH THOSE APPLIED STEEL MARKERS WITH SUPER CREAMY AGED TRITIUM TOPPING EACH. LOOK HOW NICELY THAT LUME MATCHES FROM THE DIAL TO THOSE ELEGANT STEEL STICK HANDS. SPEAKING OF HANDS, HOW COOL IS THAT RED GMT HAND AND THAT PADDLE TIPPED SWEEP SECONDS. I LOVE THE CLASSY WHITE CURSIVE FONT USED ON THIS DIAL WHICH REALLY POPS AGAINST THAT INKY BLACK BACKGROUND . NO BS ON THIS DIAL. THIS IS A TOOL MEANT TO BE EASILY READ AT A QUICK GLANCE. 

 

  • MOVEMENT: THIS SPACE-DUDE RUNS ON THE FAMED ZODIAC CALIBER 75 GMT MOVEMENT. WHAT MAKES THIS MOVEMENT SO COOL(BESIDES THE GMT CAPABILITY) IS THE HACKING FUNCTION WHICH REALLY TURNS THIS INTO A SUPER COOL TOOL WATCH. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT THIS IS A STRONG RUNNER KEEPING GREAT TIME AND RUNNING FLAWLESSLY. 

 

  • WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A VINTAGE STYLE TROPIC STRAP WHICH MATCHES EXPERTLY WITH THE STYLE OF THIS WATCH. IT IS GETTING HARD TO FIND THESE IN ANY KIND OF DECENT CONDITION. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE AND VERY WELL PRESERVED. ALONG WITH THE ROLEX GMT MASTER AND THE ACCUTRON ASTRONAUT, THE ZODIAC AEROSPACE IS ONE OF THE CLASSIC GMT MODELS TO EMERGE FROM THE MID 60s. WITH THE RELAUNCH OF THIS MODEL BY ZODIAC IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, THESE CLASSIC VINTAGE AEROSPACE GMTs ARE BECOMING QUITE COLLECTIBLE. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE BLAST TO WEAR. WITH ITS SLIM PROPORTIONS AND UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE THIS CAN EASILY SWITCH FROM DRESS WATCH TO EVERYDAY CASUAL PIECE.
