montre pas cher corum

When Rene Bannwart created Corum in 1955, he was determined to place it in the vanguard of the watch industry. This choice gave rise to some amazing models that have become watchmaking classics, such as the Romvlvs and the Admiral’s Cup, and even full-fledged icons, like the Golden Bridge. Corum has not however chosen to express its creativity exclusively through masculine models, but has also made its creative mark by introducing feminine watches. 2010 provides an opportunity to rediscover three of them, since they are to be re-issued in limited series.Chinese Hat and Golden Tube. ? Marc NinghettoThe Golden Tube�� a 1950s style iconThe first piece in this collection is the Golden Tube, which dates back to 1957. It embodies the inimitable style of the 1950s, a simple and geometrical design that remains imbued with a genuinely fanciful touch, while radiating a uniquely graceful elegance. Entirely reflecting the spirit of the era, the Golden Tube is in tune with the “Sack” dresses with their straight, pure lines launched by Hubert de Givenchy in 19571.Golden Tube. ? CorumThe Golden Tube �C as much a watch as a piece of jewelry �C is indeed formed by a 31 mmlong, 14.5 mm-diameter tube that is worn like a cuff-watch. Freely fixed to the bracelet along which it slides, this tube can thus be wrapped around the wrist like a lucky charm on its bracelet. Its polished gold case is surrounded by gem-set lines forming diamond gadroons. Its sides are also set with concentric lines of gems. The model is thus embellished by 342 gemstones in all, totaling 3.58 carats. The case is enhanced by a fluted crown positioned at 12 o’clock and adorned with a white mother-of-pearl cabochon. The dial comes either set with diamonds or in white mother-of-pearl with three diamonds at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock. The model is available in white or red gold, and may be fitted with an alligator leather strap or a gem-set gold bracelet. It will be issued in a limited numbered edition of 30 pieces red gold and in white gold.Once upon a time there was a story of the Chinese HatThe second re-edition in this trio of Vintage watches was introduced in 1958. Nicknamed the Chinese Hat, its shape does indeed evoke the hat worn by peasants working in the rice fields of the Middle Kingdom. The round case and its sapphire crystal are cambered along the 6-12 o’clock axis, and these curves are accentuated by the diamond-set lines playing around the bezel. The 33 mm-diameter case is studded with 142 full-cut diamonds totaling 2.44 carats.Chinese Hat. ? CorumThis watch comes with a white mother-of-pearl dial enhanced by three diamonds or, for those who prefer a more richly jeweled version, a dial entirely paved with diamonds. In order to preserve the pure, smooth lines of the case, the miniature quartz movement is set to time by means of a corrector concealed beneath the case. The watch is available in red gold or white gold with a leather strap or gem-set gold bracelet, and it will be issued in a limited numbered edition of 30 pieces in red gold and in white gold.Timelessness and elegance are the keynotes of the Round Golden BridgeThe third model re-issued by Corum is the Round Golden Bridge, the most resolutely “horological” of the three, since it beats to the cadence of the legendary C0113 baguette movement. This micromechanical masterpiece was created by Corum exactly 30 years ago.Accommodating its 140 components housed within a space just 33 mm long, 3 mm high and less than 5 mm thick represents a remarkable feat, especially when one considers that this mechanical hand-wound caliber is equipped with a variable-inertia balance beating at a frequency of 4 Hertz and ensuring optimal reliability and precision. Other refined technical features include a barrel equipped with slip-springs, a 40-hour power reserve, as well as the solid gold hand-engraved mainplate and bridges. This model enables connoisseurs to admire its finishing from all angles, due to the fact that its guilloch��-work dial is placed not above, but rather on either side of the movement, and also thanks to the transparent caseback.The large 41 mm case diameter and opening thus fully reveal the caliber in all its splendid majesty. Even the hands are openworked so as not to hide as little of possible of the movement which is truly given pride of place. The Round Golden Bridge will be issued in a limited edition of 75 pieces.These three Vintage editions forming a decidedly exclusive collection will be available in the brand’s own-name boutiques (in Geneva, Hong Kong and Shanghai), as well as from around ten selected retailers worldwide as of end of October.Chinese Hat – Creation year 1958Reference: Limited Edition 30 piecesWhite gold, mother-of-pearl dial 237.101.69/0081 PN01White gold, diamond set dial 237.101.69/0081 GR34Red gold, mother-of-pearl dial 237.101.85/0081 PN01Red gold, diamond set dial 237.101.85/0081 GD34Movement: CO237Quartz movementFrequency: 32’768 Hz5 rubiesFunctions: Hours, MinutesCase: 34mm18kt red gold 5N or 18kt white gold, round cambered shapeCase set with 142 round diamonds for 2.44 ctScrewed case back, satin finishHour and minute corrector on the casebackDial: White mother-of-pearl or set with diamondsBlack skeleton hour and minute baton handsGlass: Cambered sapphire crystalBracelet, strap: Black crocodile leather strap or 18kt gold bracelet set with 337 diamonds for6.39 ctBuckle: Red or white gold tongue buckleWater-resistance 30 meters (3atm / 99feet)Round Golden Bridge – creation year 1994Reference 113.247.55/0001 FN15Limited Edition of 75 piecesMovement: CO113Mechanical baguette movement, hand-wound by a stem at 6 o’clockSlipping spring mechanismVariable inertia balance adjustable by screwsFrequency: 4Hz, 28’800 vibrations/hour19 Jewels18kt red gold hand-engraved plate and bridgesPower reserve of 40 hoursFunctions: Hours, MinutesCase: 41mmCase in 18kt red gold 5N, round shapePolished finish on the top, satin finish on the casebackScrewed caseback with see-through opening under the movementFluted crown at 6 o’clock, decorated with Corum keyCase and horns decorated with gadroonsDial: Black with vertical guilloch��Red gold 5N coated hour indexes on the flangeSkeleton hour and minute baton handsGlass: Sapphire crystalStrap: Black crocodile leather strap, hand-stitchedBuckle 18kt red gold tongue buckleWater-resistance 30 meters (3atm / 99feet)Golden Tube 2010 – Creation year 1957Reference: Limited Edition 30 piecesWhite gold, mother-of-pearl dial 137.801.69/0081 PN01White gold, diamond set dial 137.801.69/0081 GR34Red gold, mother-of-pearl dial 137.801.85/0081 PN01Red gold, diamond set dial 137.801.85/0081 GD34Movement: CO137Quartz movementFrequency 32’768 Hz5 rubiesFunctions: Hours, MinutesCase Tube shaped, 31mm long, diameter of 14.5mmCase in 18kt red gold 5N or 18kt white goldCase set with 342 round diamonds for 3.58 ctFluted crown at 12 o’clock, decorated with a mother-of-pearl insertSliding along the braceletDial: White mother-of-pearl or set with diamondsBlack skeleton hour and minute baton handsGlass: Sapphire crystalBracelet: Black crocodile leather strap or 18kt gold bracelet set with diamondsBuckle: Red or white gold tongue buckleWater-resistance 30 meters (3atm / 99feet)
