It has a lifetime mainspring, the movement is an automatic-wind model that winds from the motion of your wrist. The watch was manufactured to out-wear the wearer(s) if it is properly cared for.
Add $75-$85 to the price of a Zodiac you buy at auction on ebay when it says - "it could use a good cleaning" and you can realize the value of this restored 1970's watch.
