Citizen Campanola Mechanical Watches To Use Swiss La Joux-Perret Movements
If you aren't familiar with Campanola, it is a high-end sub-brand of Japanese Citizen watches and has been around for years now as a sort of secret treat for the most dedicated watch fans. Most Campanola watches remain in Japan, but they have had limited distribution around the world. The collection began with Citizen branding on the dials, but later the Campanola name was featured on the dial of these timepieces as the Citizen name took a back seat. One of the first watch reviews I ever did on watches-dealer was of my Citizen Campanola Grand Complication watch here.Campanola began with an interesting premise: to marry high-end case and dial construction techniques with innovative, high-end made quartz movements. In many ways, it was to be an apex of the high-end quartz watch market. Citizen sort of said, "here is a cool quartz movement with lots of features that would normally cost over $100,000 if it was mechanical. Here you get a similar package for $5,000 or so."

Platinum or Rose?
Hi all,So my adventure continues. As I was advised early on, I am trying to get the nicest example of a PP that I really like (not one that I only think is going to hold the most value...though it would still be nice since I know the day to sell will come). Problem is that I'm going to have a very difficult time deciding between the 5055, 5035, & 5024 (i know the 5024 is an odd third choice here but I was always a fan of a modern looking gondolo from PP). What I'd like your opinions on, since my two favorite tones are silver (so the G or P) and the rose gold, is which do you think is a smarter purchase? I ask this because I'm starting to see some P examples in the same price range as G or R.

I joined the club!
After much debate, I decided to go with the 111. I was a member of this family for a very short time years ago with a Radiomir and decided it just wasn't for me. I think I will enjoy this one much more. This is all thanks to the enabler, DavidSW.

1st post.I decided I wanted a watch for a special occasion, and the sales lady recommended the SD43. I didn't know anything about the watch and 6 weeks later I am now an owner of the SD43. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
