Corum has added a touch of modernity and athleticism into its Admiral collection and the new urban warrior is fierce.

The Admiral is one of the pillars of the brand’s heritage timepieces that were unveiled in 1960. It embodies the Swiss watchmaker’s idea of maritime-inspired watchmaking. This year, the Admiral AC-One 45 Chronograph received a facelift but the masculine-looking watch still features its authentic power, elegance and performance with a huge does of nautical inspiration.

The new Admiral “60” hour marker at 12 o’clock has been replaced by the Corum key and brand logo, which have been slightly enlarged to give better brand visibility. The brand also worked on the case shape of the watch. It features a more angular dodecagonal bezel compared to its predecessor. Corum also included two titanium inserts between the bezel and case so as to offer the option of playing with colours and materials—the possibility of mixing and matching is boundless and is something that the Swiss watchmaker will experiment with in the future. The result lends a more powerful and athletic presence on the wrist.
