Corum Buckingham Tigre watch

The Corum Buckingham Tigre watch is an exotic luxury timepiece that captures the majesty and presence of the tiger. This stunning watch, part of the Corum Artisan collection, displays the unique hand-craft that makes these creations individual works of art. Upon a mother of pearl dial, a skilled artist first engraves the subject. After this, with the assistance of a microscope, the artist applies brilliantly colored lacquers in multiple layers, which much be fired to dry them between applications.

When the process is finally complete, the resulting work displays truly brilliant color and depth as well as a nearly three-dimensional quality; because of this intensive process, no two such dials are ever exactly alike. Corum has chosen a precise battery-operated Swiss quartz movement to animate the Buckingham Tigre watch, which ensures maximal accuracy and convenience; for aficionados of traditional watchmaking, Corum also offers the option of a manually-wound mechanical movement. The rectangular case of the Corum Buckingham Tigre watch is crafted from 18K white or yellow gold, in an edition of only 50 pieces per metal.

Each of these precious cases, which demonstrates expert finishing detail, is set with 80 beautiful full-cut Top Wesselton VVS diamonds on the bezel, which have a total weight of 3.30 carats; an additional aesthetic touch is provided by a blue sapphire cabochon which is set into the crown. The Corum Buckingham Tigre watch is completed by a fine crocodile strap and an ardillon buckle in 18K gold.
