This sepia tinted wrist watch stared at me from the magazine cover lying on the coffee table in my father’s room the other day. It looked almost like an inherited antique piece that was lovingly passed down the generations. The Zeppelin LZ 127 8678-4 Chronograph Quartz is truly a classic, complete with the reddish brown (some would describe it as grey) dial with hour markers printed in the old-style font. The dial looked vintage just like the old papers from the 19th century aged over the long period of time.
For the fans of all things antique, the Zeppelin brand of watches is sure to impress. All Zeppelin timepieces are inspired by the balloon aircrafts that traversed the skies in the 1900s, paying tribute to their creator and aeronautical pioneer Count Ferdinand Grafvon Zeppelin. The airship logo of the brand is a celebration of the one-time regal mode of transport in balloon aircrafts that was the privilege of the elite.
Zeppelin watches are finely crafted pieces that capture the elegance and finesse of a peaceful era of the early 1920s. Clean, sleek lines and a vintage look that is almost minimalistic is the main attraction of the brand.
The Zeppelin brand is owned by the German manufacturer POINTtec, a company that has a little more than three decades of experience in the watch industry. The brand aims to provide good quality dress watches with minimalistic designs that highlight the vintage charm. Well-built timepieces using quality materials with the “Germany Made” tag is a refreshing change from the usual.
The looks may be vintage but there is nothing old-fashioned about the Zeppelin LZ 127 8678-4 86784 Chronograph Quartz Men’s Watch. It features all the modern trappings of a watch right from water resistance to luminescence along with chronograph function and a date display. Unlike other Zeppelin timepieces that feature a see-through case back, the LZ 127 has a solid case back. Completing the picture is a brown leather strap with stitched edges.
Zeppelin LZ 127 8678-4 86784 Chronograph Quartz Men’s Watch has a slightly domed mineral crystal that enhances the classic look, again reminiscent of the balloon aircrafts. Some experts feel that it makes the watch delicate and easily prone to damage. Although I doubt the wearer would put it to rough use, considering it is a dress watch.
