Corum quickly acquired the patent and collaborated with Vincent Calabrese to put the watch into production. At the height of the quartz […]
Corum’s launch of the Bubble watch in 2000 took the watch world by surprise. Well before the onslaught of XXL watches, the Bubble exploded on the scene with a massive 44mm case and, even more startling, a towering domed sapphire crystal magnifying and producing crazy distortions on the dial. Inspired by an experimental deep-sea dive […]
One of Corum’s bold and contemporary designs, the Admiral is one of the brand’s main collections. As the name suggests, the model has a nautical inspiration: its most recognisable features are its dodecagonal bezel and the use of 12 nautical pennants as hour markers. With its slimmer silhouette, the 42mm variation has become one of […]
Concept watches (or concept cars) are usually made to showcase new styling or new technologies, and to gauge customer response. As such, they are a statement of intent.

The Bubble, brought to us by an extraordinary visionnaire and talented businessman, former Corum owner Severin Wunderman almost a quarter century ago, rarely ceased to amaze and kept us interested all these years. The Corum Bubble is still one of today’s most recognisable watch designs, satisfying the thirst for the exceptional. It is hard to […]

Have you noticed how many brands are now trumpeting ‘unisex’ as an all-embracing category for watches that glide under the 40mm marker?
