An audacious new timepiece, from the creative minds of Corum, daringly disrupts convention.

An exceptional Concept Watch comes forth from Swiss watchmaker Corum in La Chaux-de-Fonds. The brand-new watch redefines the realms of design and technology and exemplifies an impeccable blend of natural contours and eco-friendly materials. With an aesthetic that draws inspiration from organic, rounded shapes, the watch acts as a strong example of Corum's savoir faire to produce a distinct and captivating timepiece. The name "Corum" is synonymous with boldness and innovation, and the Concept Watch stands as undeniable evidence of this legacy.

The core of this extraordinary watch houses a captivating flying tourbillon movement. It is the manufacture manual-winding CO 374 that also indicates the time in hours and minutes. This calibre operates at a hypnotic frequency of 3 Hz (21,600 vibrations per hour), and boasts an impressive 90-hour power reserve when fully wound. This allows the watch to work tirelessly and conveniently over the weekend and halfway into the week.
Each element of the movement has been meticulously designed to give them the illusion of floating within the sapphire bridges and plates. When one witnesses the flying tourbillon of the Concept Watch dancing above the stars, the passage of time becomes a truly magnificent and visually striking performance that encapsulates the ideals of grace and meticulous craftsmanship.
Coming in a recycled Grade 5 Titanium 39.5mm case, the Concept Watch goes beyond traditional classifications, proudly welcoming all genders to strap this most wearable timepiece onto the wrist. It is a commitment to challenging the norms and embracing a future that is more inclusive and environmentally friendly. Interestingly, for the sake of sustainability, even the key components of the watch&rsquo;s movement, such as the tourbillon cage and wheels have been restored, refinished and repurposed for this watch. Undoubtedly, all other components in the watch have also been finely finished to a superior level, befitting of haute horlogerie.
Moreover, the caseback of the Concept Watch is also not ignored. Corum never ceases to push the limits of design and the effort extends to the watch's caseback. The skilled Corum design team has crafted a finely etched pattern encircling the distinct rear opening. This aperture gives another viewing angle and helps accentuates the tourbillon, mainspring, and gear train. Meanwhile, the engraving provides a clear explanation of the key functions of the watch's components. Thoughtful in intent and execution, this artistic portrayal beautifully demonstrates Corum's commitment to harmoniously integrate both design and practicality.

Instead of a conventional layout, the dial of the Concept Watch sits below the movement. Even though this allows the CO 374 to be in the limelight, the dial is definitely no slouch when it comes to looks. Here, the dial is expertly fashioned from precious aventurine stone, conjuring the mesmerising imagery of a meteor shower and infusing an unforgettable celestial touch of beauty into the Concept Watch. Furthermore, the hands that sit on the dial are created in the shape of arrows and have been skeletonised to offer minimal obstruction to the viewing of the said dial. Ultimately, this whole setup serves to magically enhance the illusion of the movement floating above the dial.
Bringing it all together, the Concept Watch's strap further engages Corum's innovative and socially-aware spirit. Constructed from a distinctive recycled textile material, it delivers unmatched comfort and durability and can be easily adjusted thanks to the presence of VELCRO&reg;.

Committed to the future

In its ongoing pursuit to redefine the world of luxury timepieces, Corum&rsquo;s Concept Watch comes as an embodiment of the brand's unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence. It may be a little different to the brand&rsquo;s iconic offerings but shares the same qualities and creativity as them. By seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology, striking design elements, and a deep-seated commitment to sustainability, Corum not only strengthens its grip on its pioneering status in the watch industry but further solidifies its legacy. The watch goes beyond presenting a flying tourbillon that tells the time &ndash; it moves us towards a much more interesting and meaningful future of watchmaking.
