Zodiac Super Sea Wolf GMT Automatic Stainless Steel Watch

Ref. ZO9416

A 40mm case in 316L stainless steel, 13.6mm thick with a 47.8mm lug-to-lug span, gives the Super Sea Wolf GMT a purposeful presence on the wrist. The screw-down caseback and screw-lock crown with embossed Zodiac logo speak to its 200-metre water resistance rating. The black sunray dial carries applied polished indices and luminous hands alongside a secondary 24-hour hand that tracks a second time zone independently, adjusted in one-hour increments. The bidirectional rotating bezel is rendered in K1 crystal with a pink and white Caribbean-inspired finish. The STP 7-20 automatic movement runs at 28,800vph with a 40-hour power reserve, and the solid bracelet fastens with a hidden butterfly deployment clasp.

Learn more about Zodiac

Ariste Calame founded Zodiac in Le Locle in 1882, and for its first seventy years it was a conventional Swiss maker of pocket watches and then wristwatches, with an early interest in automatic winding.

Its place in watch history rests on 1953. The Sea Wolf arrived that year as a purpose-built diver's watch, water-resistant to 200 metres with a rotating bezel — the same year as the Fifty Fathoms and the first Submariner, and from a company far smaller than either. It became standard issue for a good many navy and commercial divers, and remains the model the brand is defined by.

Zodiac spent the 1960s and 1970s pushing colour harder than most, with the Sea Wolf and Super Sea Wolf appearing in oranges, greens and two-tone bezels that look thoroughly contemporary now and looked eccentric then.

The quartz crisis hit it as it hit everyone in Le Locle, and the name passed through several owners before Fossil Group acquired it in 2001.

The modern collection is built almost entirely on reissues of that 1950s and 1960s catalogue — Super Sea Wolf, Olympos, Grandrally — on Swiss automatic movements, in limited runs.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 200m it is rated for swimming, snorkelling and recreational diving.

Water resistance explained

Will the glass scratch?

Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.

Sapphire, mineral and acrylic compared

Does it need a battery?

No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

How long does it run for when it's not worn?

About 40 hours fully wound — enough to survive a night off the wrist, but not a full weekend.

What size strap does it take?

20mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.

Will it fit my wrist?

Lug-to-lug is 47.8mm, which suits wrists from roughly 16.5cm (6½ inches) upward.

Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
