Corum Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40
Now entering the Admiral’s Cup collection that is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2010, the Corum Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40 already has the makings of greatness. Loyal to the aesthetic design that has forged the collection’s admirable reputation, it proudly bears the identity codes of its siblings: a 12-sided case and nautical pennant hour-markers. Featuring a 40mm diameter well suited to ladies’ wrists, the newcomer clearly tops the bill right from its first appearance. It is equipped with a chronograph that asserts its sporting nature, while clothed in intense black and diamonds that proclaim its feminine spirit.
While clearly a legitimate heiress to the Corum Admiral’s Cup collection, this model nonetheless stands out from its masculine counterparts by a 40mm diameter perfectly suited to ladies’ wrists. Its other signature features include the 66 diamonds sublimating the bezel and lending a decidedly glamorous touch. The brilliance of the stones is highlighted by the fascinating contrast they make with the intense shade of the black PVD-treated steel case (1300 Vickers). The polished and satin-brushed finishes of the surfaces add hypnotic depth to this black color. Surrounded by a black vulcanized rubber crown guard, the crown is also black PVD-treated and engraved with the emblematic Corum key.
The dial is available in deep black or immaculate white versions, enhanced by three nautical pennants painted in black and white on the inner bezel ring. The chronograph direct-drive seconds hand is adorned with a counterweight shaped like a Corum key. The hands and the hour-marker chevrons are coated with Superluminova to ensure nighttime visibility.
The Corum Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40 houses a mechanical self-winding movement. Endowed with a 42-hour power reserve, the latter drives the hours, minutes, small seconds, date display at 4.30 o’clock, as well as the chronograph complication controlled by pushers at 2 and 4 o’clock. Guaranteeing perfect precision that is duly chronometer-certified by the COSC, this caliber is visible through the transparent case-back that enables one to admire the dedicated Corum finishes as well as a black PVD-treated oscillating weight engraved with the brand name.
The two interpretations of the Corum Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40 are water-resistant to 100 meters and fitted with a black vulcanized rubber strap.
Issued in limited numbers of 355 for the black dial version and 155 of the model with white dial, the Corum Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40 asserts a timeless design based on striking contrasts.
