Model: Campanola “Grand Complication” AH4086-05E

Year: November 2022

Limited Edition: 120 Pieces

Features:

The Prestige. Limited to just 120 pieces. Only 13 watchmakers were deemed skilled enough to work on these hand-assembled Campanolas at Citizen’s Minami-Shinshu studio, and when you read through the list of complications, it easy to understand why. 

The Complications. It houses a Moonphase, Leap year, Perpetual Triple Calendar, 12-hour, split-time chronograph with sweeping second hand, 24-hour dial, GMT functionality, and Minute Repeater. Most of those functions won’t need any explanation, but a minute repeater deserves to be talked about.

The Minute Repeater. When activated, the minute repeater plays a chime that audibly conveys the current time, essentially acting as a musical Morse code for your wrist. Intriguingly, the chime’s time-setting can operate independently of the displayed time, allowing it to function as a GMT “hand.” 

The Craftsmanship. Yet beyond the technical bravado, it’s also beautifully composed. Its jet-black lacquer dial is brushed with a bold stripe of gold leaf. A design inspired its poetic name: Hoshi no Ame, which is directly translated as “stars falling like the rain” - akin to a meteor shower. The black and gold theme is executed beautifully throughout, and while I’ve enjoyed some of Campanola’s more restrained recent offerings, it’s refreshing to return to something proudly brazen - and unmistakably Japanese.

Condition: In very good condition. Small markings can be seen around the crown. The strap has wear around the previous buckle hole, but is still very usable. 

Scope: Box and papers.

      FAQs

      Are your watches authentic?

      Everything we sell is 100% authentic.

      All of our watches are inspected and verified for authenticity - both inside and out. We have over 15 years of sourcing and collecting rare watches in Japan, which is often considered to be one of the best markets for authentic and fully original vintage watches.

      Do you ship globally?

      We are based in Japan and regularly ship all over the world. We typically use FedEx and it takes:

      • 3-7 business days to reach North America
      • 3-7 business days to reach Europe
      • 3-7 business days to reach Asia and Oceania.

      All of our packages are securely shipped, fully insured, and trackable door-to-door.

      What condition are your watches?

      Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of the watches we typically sell, the condition varies from watch to watch. However, our photos are high resolution and our descriptions are accurate. You can buy with confidence knowing there won't be any nasty surprises.

      If the condition of a watch is ever misrepresented, we would offer a full refund.

      Are all of your watches serviced?

      Most but not all of our watches are serviced. The "Condition" section of each watch will confirm if the watch has been serviced.

      All of our watches are tested by an independent watchmaker - if a service is needed, the watch will be serviced. If a service hasn't been conducted, it's because the watch itself is too new to need a service, or there is evidence of a recent service.

      What payment methods do you accept?

      We accept payment by all major Credit Cards and Wise.com

      Do I have to pay customs or taxes?

      It depends on so many factors, including but not limited to the cost of the watch, the type of watch you've bought (vintage or new), and the import laws of your country. If you're unsure we recommend checking the import laws that relate to your country before ordering.

      Are your watches water resistant?

      Our serviced watches are typically tested to their original water resistant specifications, but we would never recommend pushing vintage or neo-vintage watches to their depth limits.

      What is your returns policy?

      Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of most of our watches, we do not offer returns under normal circumstances. All sales should be considered final.
