The first Corum Bubble watch came out in 2000, but for whatever reason, it was eventually discontinued. Then, the brand revived the Bubble watch in 2015. And today, it is one of their more important collections, so much so that they decided to make a unique piece using the iconic Bubble design. This is the Corum Bubble 47 Flying Tourbillon watch, featuring not only a tourbil [...]
Corum Admiral Legend 42 Watches

Corum Golden Bridge Round Watch Hands-On

Like many modern watchmakers, Corum has had an interesting time over the last few years. Through ups and downs, the brand circa 2016 is rediscovering itself as well as recalling some of the personalities that made the modern brand interesting. Corum of old (like 10-15 years ago) was a true innovator in terms of style and [...]
Corum Bubble Paiste & Bubble Op Art Watches

Corum may not be the first brand that pops into your head when searching for a quirky piece, but the release of the newest Corum Bubble watches warrants their name being on the list of brands to consider. The bold, totally cohesive approach to the design of this modern classic ensures that this iteration of the Corum Bubble will polarise opinion in the race for wrist space as it did upon its debut. Its cer [...]

Ah, to be a collector. These days, there are any number of things you can get yourself into thanks to the wide reach of the Internet. Want to start collecting golden-age comics?

Corum Bubble Watch Is Back For 2015

It is really about time Corum returned the popular Bubble watch a timepiece collection that originally came out in the year 2000 and served a major modern role in the brands history. Eventually, the Corum Bubble watch collection was discontinued, probably because Corum started to go a bit nuts with some silly limited edition models th [...]
Corum Chronograph Tourbillon 47 Seafender: How The Admiral's Cup Lost Its Rank

My favorite family of watches in the current collection of Corum products is the Admirals Cup. Based on a now defunct boat race, the original Admirals Cup watch began in the 1980s and was the original yachting watch to wear on or off deck with your boating shoes and skipper cap [...]
Corum Charge d'Affaires Watch Hands-On

Recently Corum formally announced their limited edition Charge dAffaires set of watches as the newest piece in their Heritage collection. This is a piece perfect for vintage lovers.

Corum Ti-Bridge Power Reserve Watch Hands-On

For some reason, all of 2012 went by without us posting a single article on Corum on . I personally covered the brand on other sites such as Departures-International.com, during that year, but it was all quiet on this front. So here is a piece I should have covered last year but at least I am getting to it now. This is probably the most int [...]
Corum Grand Precis Watch Hands-On

The longer the retro-watch kick endures, the longer I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand many of the pieces bore me into a comatose like state where all I can think about is how the slathering of modern luxury values on vintage tool-pieces feels wholly unsavory. On the other hand, there is a sort of freshness, in the revival of classic design [...]
Corum Admiral's Cup Seafender 47 Tourbillon GMT Watch Exclusive Debut

I didnt know what to make of this intriguing Corum watch when they showed it to me recently. Part of their higher, higher-end collection of high complication watches, this piece had a number of elements that are thought provoking. At 47mm wide, this watch comes in a few varieties, seen here in aluminum. There will als [...]
Corum Admiral's Cup Legend 42 Watch Hands-On

BaselWorld 2011 had a large selection of watches you can wear from brands that normally make watches most people cannot afford.

One of them was this surprise pieces from Corum called the Admirals Cup Legend 42. It comes in Lege [...]
Corum Admiral's Cup Challenger 44 Chrono Rubber Limited Edition Watches Hands-On

I think Corum hit on a great idea with these limited edition Admirals Cup Challenger 44 watches. The basic idea is simple, to create bold, friendly looking versions of the Admirals Cup watch, just do it in as much brightly colored rubber as you can. These watches are each two toned and [...]
Corum Admiral's Cup Deep Hull 48 Limited Edition Watch

It is big and it goes down pretty deep. It is also the first real divers watch from Corum that I can think of (aside from a few dive style Corum Bubble watches). This is the new for 2010 Admirals Cup Deep Hull 48 watch from Corum, and it is rather interesting, though I have some thoughts on it overall. The Admirals Cup line has been [...]
Corum Ti-Bridge Tourbillon Watch

Corum just sent me shout-out on this new Tourbillon watch that will be released a few days at Basel 2010. Thus, there will be at least two new tourbillon watches from Corum this year this Ti-Bridge Tourbillon, and the Admirals Cup Minute Repeater Tourbillon. While I have really only noticed that Corum key logo on the Admirals Cup models, n [...]

Corum Admiral's Cup Watch Line Gets The Black Flag And Black Hull For Piratey Good Times

Ive always been a fan of the Corum Admirals Cup lines of watch, the more modern versions that is. The watch is meant to celebrate the Admirals Cup yacht race, that youve only heard about if you are known in some circles as admiral, or are currently wearing deck shoes. The trademark of the watches are the flags that have been used as hour indicators. Oh, and the chronograph seconds hand [...]

Corum debuted the Admirals Cup AC-One 45 Chronograph back in 2013 as a new line within its iconic Admirals Cup collection. Less quirky and more contemporary in design, the AC-One 45 has since seen some more elaborate models, all of which seem to shout out, This isnt your Grandfathers Corum watch. Now in 2019, the brand is relea [...]
Corum 'Heritage Corum Lab 01' Watch

Watch brands today are often criticized for not being innovative, not being daring, and for clinging on to the past instead of looking to the future. Sadly, there is some truth to this, especially when you consider the trend of vintage-inspired watches which is still going strong. Its great that brands are respecting and paying trib [...]
