THE 4 PILLARS

Since 1955, CORUM has prominently positioned itself as a preeminent luxury timepiece brand, specializing in technical excellence, distinctive designs and bold creativity and originality. The brand is iconically represented across four pillars: Admiral, Golden Bridge, Heritage and Bubble. Each collection is deeply rooted in the company’s history. With an appealing variety of styles to choose from, CORUM truly offers something for everyone.

Admiral

In 1960, the first Admiral was released and to this day it continues to be inextricably linked to world-class sailing. With its inimitable aesthetic and signature nautical pennants featured on the dial or flange, incorporating striking colors and unique materials, this series remains a success story for the company. Over half a century since its inception, the Admiral collection remains a timeless classic for CORUM.

Golden Bridge

CORUM’s flagship complication model, the Golden Bridge created by Vincent Calabrese, was first introduced in 1980 and remains a benchmark with its patented baguette movement housed within its transparent sapphire crystal case. The Golden Bridge Stream design was inspired by the infamous Bay area structure, the Golden Gate Bridge. In 2013, an automatic version was introduced, featuring a new winding system comprised of two interconnected, oscillating weights. This micro-mechanical marvel continues to write new pages in watchmaking history.

Heritage

Since the company’s early beginnings, the Heritage collection has embodied a perfect balance of creativity and high art. During its history, this collection has provided stunning creations featuring enameled and feather dials, painted miniatures and engraving wonders. The most noteworthy series has been the classic Coin design, a model worn by numerous U.S. presidents and celebrities. Romvlvs is making a comeback, and the category is complimented by new introductions of exquisitely jeweled and tailored styles.

Bubble

The first generation of this radically oversized, unorthodox series was introduced in 2000 and became an immediate sensation. Over time, it has earned its key position in CORUM’s heritage. The signature towering sapphire crystal serves as a lens, magnifying glass upon the playful and sometimes irreverent dial images. Recent introductions include a Magical “nohands” dial and earlier this year, the Corum Bubble Central Tourbillon aka, Bubble 47 Swoosh was unveiled. Through the distorted wide-eye of the Bubble design, Corum continues to stretch the boundaries of extraordinary creativity for watch enthusiasts of uninhibited and avant-garde watchmaking.
