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 .
