Corum Admiral's Cup Tourbillon 48 Watch

The Corum Admiral's Cup Tourbillon 48 watch showcases the intricate mechanical brilliance of a famous complication, within a design of majesterial beauty and sporty luxury. This dazzling addition to the iconic Admiral's Cup watch collection is distinguished by its imposing 48mm case, which is crafted from 18K red gold and fitted with a strikingly faceted sapphire crystal, and rubber guards for the winding crown. All of this serves to draw the eye magnetically to the PVD-finished red gold dial, which is actually the bridge structure for the mechanism; the concave flange that encircles the dial has been hand engraved, so that the famous nautical pennants gleam opulently against the dark background. The one-minute tourbillon completes a single revolution each minute upon its red gold bridge, while elements of the gear train are visible as well, adding to the appreciation for the craftsmanship this Corum watch embodies.

Designated as the Corum CO-372 caliber, the manually wound movement relies upon a single mainspring barrel to achieve a power reserve of 90 hours. The balance wheel alternates at a moderate pace of 21,600 beats per hour. A sapphire crystal back window allows a full view of the backside elements of this prestigious caliber, whose decorative flourishes include Cotes de Geneve patterns, and metal parts whose edges are carefully drawn by hand with a file.

The Corum Admiral's Cup Tourbillon 48 watch will be limited to a production of approximately 20 pieces per year. Each of these timepieces are fitted with a fine crocodile strap, which is carefully shaped at the lug attachment to accentuate the angularity of the case. The 18K red gold buckle is decorated with the Corum signature, and the brand's distinctive key logo. Water resistance of this model is rated at 30 meters.
