Zodiac Olympos
I've got to stay off eBay. I found this 1960s Zodiac Olympos for a steal. The small, silver hands are not easy to read on the patina-ed silver dial, but I really like the uniqueness of the watch. The hexagonal shaped case certainly stands out, and in a good way. Too good a deal and too interesting a watch to pass up.

Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

the assymetrical kind of coffin shape case is certainly unusual and very cool too - they made good interesting models then - maybe you can bring it back to something like this ! nice one hayday

I've always kept my vintage watches in the "original" condition; I get the movement serviced but I tend to leave the case alone. This one might be different. I think I'm going to have this one "re-done" and return it to its former glory. The hands are difficult to read against that dial and I think some cosmetic work may be in order for this one. It's really pretty cool looking.
