Zodiac super sea wolf? Some models under 1k on sale

•

edscoble in reply to @Retro_Bastard

I like them but from hearing what @JB said about them, quality isn’t reflective of price.

I do remember someone saying something about Zodiac was it reliability or overall build quality? I remember maybe JB as well saying Yema had reliability issues.

Bit late here, but yeah, it's not that I think they're 'bad', but they're a push at their U.S. RRP, let alone their UK RRP. Also, I just don't know how much trust I have in those movements/didn't feel particularly nice to wind.
There's been loads of coverage of the movement in their world timer just stopping dead in its tracks, too. But they do look nice from a distance. I'd be buying the Super Squale that @regal posted at the Zodiac price point. Think they look great. There's also the Squale Montauk - which might only be available from Island Watches in New York, but they're only $595 which seems like an insane deal.
