Japan Only Citizen Campanola Grand Complication Available: Different Than US Version
Us watch lovers prefer focusing on the minutiae rather than the big picture sometimes. Which is probably why I love this watch, even though I basically already own one. This is the Japan only version of the highly popular Citizen Campanola Grand Complication with the Japanese rose wood lacquered dial. The model number of the Japan only edition is: CTR57-1001. However, you can read more specifics and a review about this model right here on aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer's review of the "world" model Citizen Campanola Grand Complication.The Citizen Campanola series is rare enough outside Japan, but the "world" Grand Complication model differed in a few major ways from this Japan only model.

In addition, it comes with the original Gay Freres bracelet, sporting the correct HLA endlinks. This w

Question regarding the Daytona ceramic bezel
Will the paint eventually wear on the numbers like the old steel version did ?
