Model: Citizen Campanola "Grand Complication" CTR57-1101 Minute Repeater
Year: April 2018
Features:
The Functionality. The Campanola “Grand Complication” is aptly named. A moon phase, leap year perpetual triple calendar, 12-hour split-time chronograph, 24-hour dial, and a minute repeater. Most of those functions won’t need any explanation, but a minute repeater deserves to be talked about.
The Minute Repeater. When you press and hold the minute repeater button, a chime plays different sounds to indicate the time. A musical Morse-code for time keeping, if you will. Interestingly, the chime can be set independently of the time displayed on the watch, allowing it to function as a GMT “hand.”
The Craftsmanship. The grandeur of this watch extends beyond its movement. It features a double-domed, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, a hand-lacquered urushi dial with flecks of embedded titanium that give it a starry aesthetic, and Citizen’s patented “Duratect” coating - a surface treatment that makes the metal five times harder than steel. Like Grand Seiko watches, all Campanolas are hand-made and hand-assembled in Japan by Citizen’s master craftsmen.

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.
