With its robust 200m water resistance, the Zodiac Silver Point 206.19.34 is the perfect companion for both everyday wear and daring underwater explorations, making it an ideal choice for divers and water sports enthusiasts alike. A Legacy of Innovation and Resilience Zodiac’s journey through 1.5 centuries has been marked by periods of triumph and reinvention. Founded by Ariste Calame in Le Locle, Switzerland, in 1882, the company initially produced pocket watches branded under his name. In 1908, Louis Ariste Calame registered the "Zodiac" trademark, leading to the creation of innovative flat pocket watches. By the 1930s, the focus shifted to wristwatches, introducing shock-resistant and automatic advancements. The 1950s and 1960s were transformative decades for Zodiac, characterized by innovative designs and iconic models. During this era, Zodiac introduced the Zodiac Autographic, a groundbreaking self-winding sports watch with a power reserve indicator. Its reliability paved the way for the legendary Zodiac Sea Wolf (1953), Zodiac Super Sea Wolf, and Zodiac Aerospace GMT/Jet. These models became trusted companions for professional divers and military pilots alike, especially during the Vietnam War. The brand also launched the iconic Zodiac Astrographic and Olympos, solidifying its position as a pioneer of original design. Despite setbacks during the Quartz Crisis, Zodiac underwent multiple revivals under various ownerships. In the 1990s, under the leadership of former T*G Heu*r CEO Willy Gad Monnier, Zodiac introduced the iconic Point series. The revival proved successful, and they’ve been introducing a perfect blend of original design and functionality while bringing innovations, making them one of the most interesting brands, in my opinion. The Distinctive Silver Point Collection The Zodiac Silver Point line, part of Zodiac’s tiered “Point” series, is known for its iconic designs and superior craftsmanship. Positioned as "Professional Divers Watches”, the Zodiac Silver Points line stand out with their unique aesthetic and reliability.Unlike the quirkier designs of the other lines, the Zodiac Silver Point watches offer a blend of refined originality and functionality that appeals to divers and collectors alike. Exploring the Colors and Their Stories The Point series is characterized by its color-coded tiers—Red, Silver, Gold, and the less common Blue. Each color represents a different level of technical prowess and design philosophy: - Red Point: Known as “Professional Sports Watches,” these timepieces were crafted to be reliable, rugged, and refined. Their designs often feature diver-style aesthetics reminiscent of vintage T*G Heu*r models. They were available in a variety of colors, including black, blue, white, and fully lumed dials, catering to both functionality and style. - Silver Point: Known as “Professional Divers Watches”, they were celebrated for their adventurous design and professional diver capabilities. They moved away from the T*G-influenced aesthetics to carve out a distinct identity, making them a favorite among those seeking a blend of tradition and innovation. - Gold Point: Dubbed “Elegant Sports Watches,” these models exude a 90s elegance, often appearing more luxurious and slightly ostentatious by today’s standards. - Blue Point: Associated with the Sea Wolf line, these “Ultra-Resistant Professional Diver’s Watches” are the rarest among the Point series. They share a similar quirky charm with the Gold Point series while being, in my opinion, more refined and practical. Various models were produced, including automatic, quartz, basic three-handers, and chronographs. Like the other Point series, they were designed to be rugged and reliable, making them the most interesting in the series.
