Brand History
Few brands can boast a heritage as rich as Zodiac, whose origins date back to the early 19th
century when Jacob Calame established himself as a watchmaker in La Chaux-de-Fonds,
Switzerland. By 1882, Jacob’s descendant, Ariste Calame, had returned to the family’s ancestral
home in Le Locle and founded his own watch-making workshop. The company grew dramatically
in size and scope over the next two decades.
As the years passed, world events and the developments of new technologies radically transformed
the watch industry, and Zodiac kept pace. Astute management and quality craftsmanship provided
the impetus for continued expansions and an international reputation for quality and innovation.
Today, Zodiac celebrates its rich Swiss watch-making tradition with fresh designs that address a
selected range of contemporary tastes, while maintaining their classic elegance.

Your Zodiac watch is warranted by Fossil Group, Inc* (“Fossil”) for a period two (2) years from
the original date of purchase under the terms and conditions of this warranty. The Zodiac warranty
covers materials and manufacturing defects. A copy of the receipt or dealer stamp in the warranty
booklet is required for proof of purchase.
During the warranty period the watch movement, hands and dial are the only components covered
under this warranty. A covered component will be repaired or the watch will be replaced free of
component and labor charges, if it proves to be defective in material or workmanship under normal
use.
In case of replacement, Fossil cannot guarantee that you will receive the same model watch. If your
model is not available, a watch of equal value and similar style will be provided. The warranty for the
replacement watch ends two (2) years from the date the replacement watch is received.
This warranty does not cover:
• Any defects in materials and workmanship of battery, case, crystal, strap or bracelet; including
plating on the case and/or bracelet.
• Damage resulting from improper handling, lack of care, accidents, normal wear and tear or aging.
• Water damage if care instructions for the product’s water resistance level (as marked on the
product) were not followed.
• Products that are not purchased from an authorized Zodiac retailer.
This warranty is void if the watch has been damaged by accident, negligence of persons other than
authorized Fossil sales or services agents, unauthorized service, or other factors not due to defects in
materials or workmanship. The warranty is void if the serial numbers or product date codes or other
tracking marks have been removed, altered or obliterated.
If not stated otherwise, the foregoing warranties and remedies are exclusive and in lieu of all
other warranties, terms or conditions, express, implied or statutory, as to any matter whatsoever,
including, without limitation, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
accuracy, satisfactory quality, title, and non-infringement, all of which are expressly disclaimed by
Fossil. Fossil shall not be liable for incidental, consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages
or liabilities of any kind arising out of or in connection with the sale or use of this product, whether
based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict product liability or any other theory, even if
Fossil has been advised of the possibility of such damages and even if any limited remedy specified
herein is deemed to have failed of its essential purpose. Fossil’s entire liability shall be limited to
replacement or repair of the purchase price paid, at Fossil’s sole option.
Some countries, states, or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties
