Eric Singer Co-Designs Zodiac Super Sea Wolf Topper Edition

While Zodiac isn’t an obvious brand for us to feature on Quill & Pad, when I spoke to Kiss drummer Eric Singer at Baselworld and he excitedly told me that he had co-designed a new watch, I was intrigued.

Singer has a great eye when it comes to all that is good (and not so good) about watches, both modern and vintage, and why certain designs work or don’t work.

The other designer of the watch Singer had been working on was Rob Caplan of Topper Jewelers and it is part of a special edition just for the California-based store. This is not the first watch that that duo has worked on for the store’s offerings.

In fact, it was while the two were working on the design details of the first special edition watch for Toppers, the Oris Divers Sixty-Five Topper Edition, that the idea for the Zodiac came about naturally.
