Still All the Rage

It is no secret that there are fewer timepieces worn nowadays, but there are still afficionados of these wrist companions. You don't always have to check the time on a mobile phone. The LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin (7642-5) is a quartz-driven wristwatch featuring an analogue display. Though sometimes regarded with contempt by traditionalists, quartz watches are very precise, to around 15 seconds per month. This far outstrips even the most luxurious mechanical models.

Ensuring a Snug Fit

Zeppelin state that this watch is water resistant to 165 feet. You can occasionally wear it in the shower or while swimming. But try to keep shampoo away from it if possible to prevent buildup. The timepiece has a case size of 42 mm. It attaches via a pin buckle.
