Features:

The History. Citizen’s luxury sub-brand is named after Nola, an Italian town, which located in the Campania region. The two words were portmanteau’d together to form Campanola. The Church in Nola is recognised as being the first Church that ever rang its bells to signify time. Not only does the name reflect this story, but the Campanola logo features two bells side-by-side.

The Collection. Campanolas are renowned for their use of layering, often opting for a distinctly three-dimensional look, as demonstrated above. Taking a typically chaotic complication, like a Triple Date Perpetual Calendar, and leaning into that chaos is the Campanola’s signature move. There are at least six different metal finishing techniques on display: brushing, sunburst, engraving, polishing, relief striping, and azurage. Definitely not a dial you’d get bored of looking at.

The Design. It’s hard not to talk about the spiralling universe that dominates the dial. Not only does it look fantastic, but it also functions in an unexpectedly practical way. In the first picture, the watch is showing Sunday, September 1, 2024, as the date. The year 2024 is indicated by counting the dots after 2020 until reaching the dot that the white hand points to—in this instance, the fourth dot. Here’s the clever part: every year that aligns with the hand, both above and below 2024, shares the same day/date combination. September 1 in 1912, 1940, 1968, 1996, 2052, and 2080 are all Sundays!

The Functionality. Holding the top or bottom right-side pushers will move the calendar backwards or forwards in time, allowing you to easily see which day falls on a specific date. A quick press of the left-side pusher resets the calendar to the current date.

The Craftsmanship. Much like Grand Seiko, the Campanola collection is hand-assembled, from the movements to the watch itself. Even the quartz movements, like this one, are hand-assembled! The case is hyper-polished and coated with Citizen's proprietary surface-hardening Duratect, and the domed sapphire features Citizen’s proprietary multi-layered AR coating system, known as Clarity Coating. 

Condition: In very good condition overall, but not without marks on the bezel. Please note the bump marks near the 5 o'clock (visible in picture 6). The crystal is immaculate. 

Scope: With both original boxes and the manual.

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, new, or modified), and the import and tax 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?

All of our watch mods are tested by our own pressure depth testing equipment, and are guaranteed to resistant water up to 50m of depth. Seiko Originals have varied levels of depth resistance, which will be stated in the description of each watch.

Can I modify an existing design?

We welcome all ideas! Get in touch via the Contact Us page and we can let you know the possibility and cost of any potential alterations.

What is your returns policy?

Due to the hand-made nature of the Seiko Mods, we offer a 7 day returns period after the watch has been received. The returner must bear the cost of the returns, and the watch must be returned in the same condition as it arrived. We do not offer returns on any bespoke or custom-made watches.

Due to the vintage nature of the Seiko Originals, returns are considered on a case-by-case basis, as vintage items typically have a no returns policy.
