Corum Admirals Cup 41 - Full Set
When People Talk about Corum, usually you hear about the bubble (which we love) or occasionally, the famous gold coin watches are mentioned. The Admirals Cup is rarely brought up even though it is one of the oldest models Corum has to offer. The first iteration of the Corum Admiral was made in 1960, a mere 5 years after the brands inception. Here's what it looked like,

It wasn't until 1983 that Corum introduced the familiar iteration of the Admiral's Cup with numeral pennants for the hour markers that correspond to the ICS(International Code for Signals) made for ships traveling across international waters as a means of communication. All of this with its 12 sided case design, Bulky yet elegant crown guard, and incredible bracelet makes this the watch to take you back to the early 2000's when this was the watch to own at the time.
Corum, founded by René Bannwart, is a relatively young Swiss watch brand, established in 1955 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. René Bannwart had previously worked at prestigious watch companies like Patek Philippe and Omega, where he gained significant experience and expertise in the industry.
In 1956, Corum released its first watches and quickly gained recognition for its originality and creativity. The brand introduced a series of innovative ideas that set it on a path to success. One notable watch from the early years was the "Chinese Hat" watch for ladies, named for its distinctive bezel shape.
