The watch presents in beautiful condition overall, with an attractive golden dial and well-defined cushion-case contours.

The applied markers and hands retain a pleasing appearance, while the acrylic crystal shows light surface traces. The original Zodiac box displays age-related wear and discolouration. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an essential part of the condition description. The watch’s water resistance has not been tested. Contact with water should therefore be avoided. Story & Heritage Zodiac’s origins reach back to 1882, when Ariste Calame opened a watchmaking workshop in Le Locle, Switzerland. This longstanding Swiss heritage provides the background to a brand whose vintage watches offer a wide variety of distinctive designs. This example expresses the elegance of the traditional mechanical dress watch through a bold cushion-shaped case and a carefully balanced dial. The brushed gold-plated surface frames the circular display, giving the watch a confident presence while preserving comfortable 35 mm proportions. The golden dial creates a cohesive composition with the case and hands. Its ridged applied markers catch the light, adding depth to the restrained layout, while the absence of a calendar allows the dial’s symmetry to remain uninterrupted. Inside, the signed Zodiac Cal. 61A preserves the personal ritual of manual winding—a direct connection between wearer and mechanism. With its original signed crown, original box and attractive vintage presentation, this Zodiac offers an appealing combination of mechanical interest, warm colour and sculptural design.
