Pink Corum Bubble Diamond Watch

Watchmaking is a business heavily influenced by tradition, but sometimes even the most conservative designers can show their playful side. Such is the case with the Pink Corum Bubble Diamond Watch. It is an excellent example of luxury which is delightful, and when adorned will give the woman who wears it ritzy sophistication.

Watch Highlights

This watch can be purchased in three sizes, which are 35mm, 26mm and 45mm. The case is constructed with gold or steel and contains a movement which can be automatic or quartz, with minutes, hours and seconds displayed along with chronograph complications and the date. Visually, the watch has tremendous panache, and will definitely stand out on the wrist. This watch utilizes a diamond bezel which is fixed along with a strap made of white leather, a domed crystal sapphire and a dial comprised of Arabic styled numbers which are gold luminescent.  It uses a clasp with a double fold and when purchased should come with the original documentation.

The crystals used in this watch are exceptionally domed, which means that those who wear them will see a unique perspective from every angle. The dials are also extremely artful, particularly on models like the Royal Flush, Privateer or Roulette. This is a must have watch for anyone who is looking for something with a bit of flair that is slightly whimsical.

About The Company

Compared to other Swiss watchmakers, who were established in the 19th century, Corum is a newcomer to the market, having been established in 1955. Despite this, it wasn’t long before the company was designing their own masterpieces. Corum watches are not mass produced, only being manufactured in limited quantities for a specific collection. This means they provide outstanding collection and investment value to those that acquire them. Additionally, Corum often uses materials which are not standard among most watchmakers. A great example of this is the usage of rare coins in the form of dials or an exotic animal theme in some models.

Corum has gone through a number of transitions over the last half century. They have dramatically increased the standards, accuracy, and functionality and reconditioning of their timepieces. This, combined with their unique style, has allowed them to emerge as a serious player in the luxury watch business, even when compared to their older counterparts.

In an industry as competitive and highly regarded as Swiss watchmaking, newcomers have to stand out, and this is precisely what Corum did with their Pink Bubble diamond watch. Few Swiss watchmakers incorporate pink into their designs, and when you throw in the shape and signature sapphire, this timepiece is unlike anything else that has ever come out of Switzerland. By ensuring the bezel is also diamond covered, it brings together the steel casing in a manner which compliments the white leather texture. This makes it a watch that can be worn for virtually any occasion, except for the most formal.
