Innovations in Craft & Horology

Corum is synonymous with horological creativity—from coin‑embedded ultra‑thin mechanisms to floating baguette calibres in sapphire cases, and Tudor‑style maritime complications. The Admiral’s Cup Tides was one of the first watches to track tidal strength via a proprietary movement. The Bubble line revived with playful, oversized dials under Wunderman. Corum continues its bold DNA under renewed Swiss stewardship.

Vogue India: “Corum merges marine legacy with high‑watchmaking bravado.”

HODINKEE: “The Golden Bridge’s linear movement remains a marvel of transparency and structure.”
