I really don't think it's Spanish, but Portuguese, once Orient produces a lot of parts for their watches here in Brazil. BUT, in Portuguese it would be spelled Sábado, and not Sabado, so though the day wheel is probably made here, it may well be written in Spanish.

+1 Some day I want a watch with a Japanese date. Hmmmm, something about that sentence....

I vaguely recall a TV news report about Finland still speaking Latin. Found a BBC article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6079852.stm

I took it partly because of some Italian ancestry and partly because I thought it might give me a leg up on English for the SAT. I think it did.

Even this Greek watch manufacturer (I have bought quiet a few of their watches, mostly quartz, to give as gifts to business partners and clients) only have date, not day.
Its Folli Follie, they have made quiet a reputation world wide.
Interesting Ceramic designs for their Lady's watch series.

P.S. they are assembled in Greece but have Miyota movements.
