The photos presented below are of the actual item for sale. Kindly study them carefully because what you see is what you will get. We try our best to describe watches as accurately as we can that's why we present them visually & literally. In case we missed a few points, you are welcome to ask questions.
The ZODIAC Aeronaut is an efficient time-keeper designed for pilots, predecessor of the ZODIAC Aerospace GMT. It displays the date, the 12-hour standard time, as well as the 24-hour military time, all at a glance! The military time is indicated by a pointer & a rotating bezel where 24-hours are marked. An amazing milestone achieved by ZODIAC in the history of horology!
This watch is in VERY GOOD condition, according to the Timezone Grading System: The watch shows what might be considered normal wear by a careful owner who wore the watch regularly. Scratches are evident, but no nicks or dings. May have replacement parts. Running & keeping good time, though may need minor regulation. A sound, attractive presentation overall. 83-87%
 stainless steel case
rotating silver-electroplated steel bezel indicates 24-hour military time; note that the bezel turns without clicks, as were most bezels of its era
mint-condition satin blue dial or face
steel hands; red-coated steel Military-time pointer
raised gold-filled bar hour markers
trapezoid date display window at 3 o'clock
clearly-marked white grid/track

In the photo above, the standard time is 3:48 am. Interpreted in military time, it's still 3:48 - which is why the military-time pointer points to a little before 4 on the bezel!

We can adjust the size of the bracelet upon customer's request. Please just specify your preferred bracelet length & we will add links to fit your wrist.
new stainless steel clasp
