The most prominent model in the new Corum Admirals edition released in 2021 is the Admiral 45 Automatic Openworked Flying Tourbillon Carbon & Gold watch. Crafted from a high-tech material, this bold and energetic timepiece is available in a limited edition of just 48 pieces.
Its 45mm diameter case is crafted using fluctuating layers of ultra-light carbon mixed with 18-karat gold glitter, making each and every timepiece unique. This impressive wristwatch is equipped with an open-worked movement with flying tourbillon escapement.
The automatic flying tourbillon movement, CO 298, was developed in house by the brand. It beats at 3Hz to offer incredible precision, and the tourbillon escapement compensates for errors in timekeeping due to the effects of gravity on the watch when it is in a horizontal position.
Equipping the piece with a flying tourbillon is also a nod to the sailing world, where safe navigation of the seas requires ultimate precision. The open-worked movement is visible on both the dial side and case back side to showcase the meticulously finished components, the magnificent bridges and the mesmerizing constantly rotating flying tourbillon escapement.
Water resistant to 100 meters, the Open-worked Flying Tourbillon Carbon & Gold watch comes with an inventive strap made of rubber and synthetic textiles with genuine gold stitching.
