Questions About Zodiac Watch Used
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024
    Yes, Zodiac is a luxury watch brand. While the company is mostly known for its dive watches sold at an affordable price point, Zodiac has a rich history.

    It was founded by second-generation watchmaker Ariste Calame in Switzerland in 1882. Collectors find appeal in the unique design sensibility associated with Zodiac watches, with watch lovers frequently citing the brand’s colorful dials and alluring straps of Italian leather or crocodile hide.

    Zodiac timepieces typically feature STP mechanical movements, which it produces at its own manufacture in Switzerland. Some of the luxury maker's most popular watches include the Sea Wolf, the Super Sea Wolf, the Olympus, the Aerospace GMT and the Grand Marine.

    Zodiac was purchased by the Texas-based Fossil Group in 2001.

    On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Zodiac Watch Company watches.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024

    To use a doctor's watch, use the large dial to track the time. The smaller dial is for measuring a patient's pulse.

You'll find a selection of doctor's watches on 1stDibs.

The classic way to wear a pocket watch is at the end of a fob in the waistcoat pocket. Shop a range of antique and designer watch fobs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 5, 2024
    Yes, diamonds are used in watches. Many watches contain bearings crafted out of lab-made jewels, which minimize friction and support more accurate timekeeping. In some cases, makers use lab-made diamonds for these features. Watchmakers may also set decorative diamonds into the bezel or bracelet to enhance the visual appeal of their timepieces. Some makers well-known for their diamond watches include Graff, Chopard, Jacob & Co., Piaget, Hublot, Cartier and Bulgari. Shop a collection of diamond watches on 1stDibs.

    People never stopped using pocket watches entirely. In fact, many luxury watchmakers continue to release new pocket watches. Some notable contemporary models include the Patek Philippe Grand Complications Pocket Watch, the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Pocket Watch, the A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Pocket Watch, the Breguet Classique Pocket Watch and the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Pocket Watch. As to when wristwatches became more popular than pocket watches for daily wear, the shift happened in the years following World War I. Although the first wristwatches date back to the 19th century, it wasn't until soldiers who had worn wristwatches in the field returned home that demand for the timepieces really grew. Many watchmakers had developed new designs and technologies to contribute to the war effort, adding to the increased popularity of wristwatches during the 1920s and ’30s. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of pocket watches.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024
    The quality of the diamonds used in Gucci jewelry and watches varies. However, the luxury maker has a reputation for being selective about its materials.
