Corum Admiral’s Cup Minute Repeater Tourbillon 45The Corum Admiral’s Cup Minute Repeater Tourbillon 45 50th Anniversary edition of the one of the most attractive models in Corum’s whole range of men’s watches successfully packs a tourbillon escapement and a minute repeater complications in a 45 mm 18-carat red gold case without making it look like a Big Mac on your wrist.Okay, at 45 mm in diameter (without the crown and lugs) and, at first glance, more than 15 mm in height, the watch is huge. However, with its hand-wound CO 010 caliber measuring only 32 mm in diameter and 5.35 in height, it seems that the watch is actually huge by choice like a body builder or a USMC sergeant.What is really interesting about this watch, it is its minute repeater winding mechanism.In order to protect the movement from occasional damage, Corum’s engineers decided to hide the winding crown in its rotating bezel. In order to wind the mechanism, you will have to turn the bezel 27 degrees clockwise.Of course, there is price: the watch’s depth rating is now limited at humble 30 meters, which is not really impressive for a nautical-themed timepiece.According to the company, the Corum Admiral’s Cup Minute Repeater Tourbillon 45 total production will be limited at only 10 units for the whole year 2010. Now, try to guess its price.

Watches have ceased to be just merely devices that tell the time. Take a look at the Corum Bubble Dive Bomber Limited Edition “Flying Shark” watch and you will realize these devices have also become works of art.The Corum Bubble Dive Bomber Limited Edition “Flying Shark” comes with an exaggerated domes sapphire crystal which is a limited edition version of the Corum Bubble series. The main attraction for this watch is of course the green flying shark image on the black dial, which clearly pays homage to the flying shark nose art identified with the World War II P-47 fighters.The watch comes in a big satin-finished case measuring 44.5mm wide. The unidirectional rotating bezel has Arabic numerals in 5-minute interval. The face of the watch is designed in a way such that you wouldn't easily recognize the Arabic numerals to signify 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock. The flying theme is reinforced by the second hand which looks like a three-bladed propeller.The military style black leather strap fits the entire watch design. It is powered by an ETA 2892-A2 automatic movement with 21 jewels. The watch, which sells for $3,195, is water resistant by up to 650 feet so you can wear it even when you have to engage in outdoor activities that will require some water splashes.
