Choosing your Dual-Date watch

The Yellow Gold/Sunburst design pairs a day-and-date display with a Miyota 8285 automatic movement.

What does Dual-Date mean?

The Miyota 8285 automatic movement displays both the day of the week and the date. This makes the calendar display a practical part of the dial. Compare the Roman, Arabic and baton-style designs in the collection to choose the layout you prefer.

How will it fit on my wrist?

The case measures 40mm across and 47.4mm from lug to lug, with a thickness of 12mm. Compare those measurements with a watch you already wear, then check the wrist photos and bracelet sizing in this listing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Mod?

A Mod is a modified watch. We hand-assemble every one ourselves, starting with a genuine Japanese movement and adding our own custom dials, hands, cases and bracelets.

The movement in each watch is listed in its product description.

Is this a Seiko watch?

No. Somerville Watch Co. is an independent watchmaker, and we're not affiliated with Seiko or any other watch brand. Our custom parts give each watch a look and finish you won't find on a stock watch.

More on our No Brand Affiliation page.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes. Every watch has a 1-year warranty from the purchase date, handled in-house by us. Because we build the watches ourselves, they don't come with printed warranty papers.

The warranty doesn't cover water damage or cosmetic wear. Full terms are on our Warranty Policy page.

When will my watch ship and arrive?

Orders ship within 72 hours. Shipping in the U.S. is free with USPS Ground Advantage (usually 2 to 5 business days in transit), and faster options like Priority Mail and UPS are available at checkout.

Your exact delivery estimate shows at checkout and in your order confirmation email. We ship within the U.S. only.

Can I see a watch in person?

We're an online-only shop with no store or showroom, so we can't offer pickup or try-ons. Every watch ships free within the U.S.

What is your return policy?

Watches can be returned within 14 days of delivery if they're new, unworn and still wrapped, with the plastic seals on the bracelet. Bracelets, straps and watch boxes are final sale, and we don't do exchanges.

To start a return, email help@somervillewatchco.com with photos of the watch and the reason for the return, and wait for our return authorization before shipping anything. Restocking fees apply. Full details are in our Refund Policy.

I was hesitant to spend the money but read the reviews and I’m so happy I did. The watch is exactly what I hoped it would be. My only caution is that the watch has some weight to it. If you are looking for something light on your wrist, this is not the watch for you. A+

Thank you, Tiffany! Glad it was worth it.

I got the gold with a green face Seiko mod for my husband’s birthday and he absolutely loves it. The watch is incredible quality and has a beautiful shine to it. The watch arrived sooner than promised also!

Hi Kathleen, we're thrilled to hear your husband loves the watch! Thanks so much for your kind review!

Finally, I can write my review!

I rarely leave reviews unless an experience is either exceptionally bad or truly exceptional. In this case, it was absolutely exceptional.

From start to finish, the entire purchasing experience exceeded my expectations, and the watch itself is stunning. The quality, fit, and overall construction are flawless. The finishing on the case and bracelet is excellent, the dial has an incredible sunburst effect, and everything feels far more premium than I expected.

One pleasant surprise was the exhibition case back. I somehow overlooked that feature when ordering, so getting to admire the automatic movement was a great bonus. I also appreciated that the watch came with its own quality bracelet adjustment tool.

What has impressed me the most, though, is the reaction from other people. This watch has received more compliments than any other watch I’ve ever owned. Most people initially think it’s a Rolex, but when I explain what it actually is and how it works, it always turns into a great conversation. I actually enjoy telling people the story behind it.

The watch is comfortable, keeps excellent time, and honestly hasn’t left my wrist since it arrived.

I was so impressed that I’ve already ordered two more watches from Somerville Watches, and I already know I’ll be back for more. It’s rare for a purchase to exceed my expectations this much, but this one absolutely did. I couldn’t be happier and would recommend Somerville Watches without hesitation.

Hi Stanley, thank you so much for your fantastic review! Happy to hear that you had such an exceptional experience and love your 'Green Roman' watch. Your kind words about the quality and design mean a lot to us, and we're delighted it has sparked great conversations. We look forward to serving you again soon - thanks for being a loyal customer!

I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The watch arrived quickly and was packaged well, and honestly it looks even better in person than it did in the photos. Customer service was excellent too responsive and helpful whenever I had a question. I’d definitely buy from them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a watch.

Hi Danny, we're excited to hear you're so happy with your watch! Thank you for the kind words and recommendation. We look forward to serving you again soon!

I couldn't be happier with my Somerville Day-Date. SWC has really knocked it out of the park. The finish is outstanding, with a beautiful high-polish shine that looks far more expensive than it is. The bracelet feels solid and comfortable. One feature I really appreciated is that the bracelet uses screw-down links, which I personally prefer over the traditional pin-and-collar system because they're much easier to size.
The watch also arrived in a nice green leather pouch, which was a classy touch. It feels incredibly well made and actually weighs more than my Seiko Presage. I love that it uses a genuine Miyota 8285 automatic movement; it has been keeping excellent time. The sapphire crystal gives it a premium feel, and the attention to detail, from the fluted bezel to the day and date display, really stands out. The dial is especially impressive, with perfectly aligned Roman numerals and day and date windows that are centered beautifully.
If you're looking for a classic, luxury-inspired watch that offers incredible value for the money, I highly recommend Somerville. I honestly enjoy wearing this piece even more than my Presage, and I'll definitely be purchasing from them again.

Wow! Thanks for the kind words, Christopher. Supper appreciated!

Stumbled on this page a few months back but was hesitant at first. Ultimately decided to pull the trigger on this piece. Got it in less than a week and my god; it is beautiful! The quality of the build, the details, the movement; the list goes on. I loved it so much that I purchased another piece a week or less later. Already planning my 3rd purchase. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE HERE!

Thanks so much for the continued support, Salem!
