love their watches but I can’t get over the logo. Seems very exploitative in regards to a tragedy

The company dates to the 1800's and started the Zodiac brand in 1908, so there is zero exploitation of a tragedy.

THE ZODIAC WATCH COMPANY’S HISTORY - Montres Publiques - The vintage watch magazine

Zodiac watches date back to 1882, when Ariste Calame, the son of a watchmaker, set up a workshop in Switzerland…Vintage Zodiac watches

1950s Zodiac Sea Wolf (Ref. 699)

When it comes to under-the-radar vintage watch companies, Zodiac should be one of the first brands to come to mind. Zodiac made several sports models in the 50s-60s and were direct competitors to Rolex, Blancpain, and Tudor but are often overlooked as they don't receive the same clout as the...

I agree. Although the company was around long before that happened, it's the main reason why I have yet (and probably never will) to try one of their watches. The logo just gives me the creeps.

My father was recently overseas in Dubai and picked this up for me. Have no idea anything about this brand, but from what I can see on google they seem to be a European fashion brand that doesn’t really have any American presence. Still, pretty cool looking watch even if it’s a fashion watch with a quartz battery.
What do you y’all think of this?

Fashion house founded by designer Etienne Aigner - they have a Munich and US branch, although I think the US branch is defunct. Here's a little about the guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etienne_Aigner

Here's their website: www.aignermunich.com (and www.aignermunich.de for the German site)

Um.... OK... I mean Zodiac's been around since 1882....

I mean the Zodiac killer used their logo for his murders... what, were they supposed to change their logo because of it?

 

[Jorgerg]
