Scored this Zodiac "Renegade" for $50.00, brand new, with warranty. I've noticed the internet photos of Zodiacs do not do them justice - not sure if I did any better, the first photo was trying to be moody but I guess came out too dark.

I took a chance on this watch because it reminded me sort of like a 1960's flower child version of that famous square case dive watch. But this thing is a beauty, a solid hunk, 100 m (claimed) waterproof and one of those watches that you put on and it instantly feels perfect.

50 bucks! Not everyone's cup o' tea, I'm sure, but I'm happy :-d

Not at all! I'm not much of a Zodiac fan and won't warm up to this model either (though I like the wire lugs detail), but the pics are great. The lighting on the first is just beautiful, a little more light on the dial might have made it pop more, but there's absolutely nothing to be dissapointed about there.

Thanks - actually, I just realized it, I should have made the lume go off for that first photo, that might have looked cool!

How does the strap go on? Are there still spring bars between the wire lugs or is the strap stitched on?

Haven't quite figured that out yet - can't see in there. Maybe Z-Freak knows? The band is nice, thick leather, so no plans to replace it although I wonder what it might look like on rubber...
