For over six decades, Swiss watchmaker CORUM has used its high-precision mechanical engineering and inspired craftsmanship skills to gift the world with an array of truly arresting timepieces. Recently, the luxury marque expanded on this storied legacy by introducing the latest 2019 Admiral Collection to eager fans at an exclusive party at The Murray, Hong Kong.

To help celebrate the premier of the 2019 Admiral Collection, Soon Boon Chong, the brand’s Global Sales and Marketing Director, was joined by several local celebrities who shared insights into their own love of CORUM, including singer Alfred Hui, actor Kevin Chu and Ashley Lam, former Hong Kong Swimming Team member-turned-actress.


Instantly recognisable by their dazzling dodecagonal (12-sided) cases, the new 2019 Admiral Collection that were showcased at the launch event featured three updated designs – the Admiral AC-ONE 45 Openworked Automatic, the Admiral AC-ONE 45 Openworked Tourbillon and the Admiral AC-ONE 45 Chronograph – as well as the exciting debut of the first-ever ladies’ model of the collection: the diamond-ringed Admiral AC-ONE 38 Automatic.

Perhaps the most awe-inspiring of the timepieces on display was the attention-grabbing Admiral AC-ONE Openworked Tourbillon. Speaking to the unique nature of this avant-garde design, Global Sales and Marketing Director of Montres CORUM, Soon Boon Chong, remarked, “Creating top-notch timepieces with innovative elements has always been a mission of CORUM. Following our previous success on skeletonised designs, we are extremely excited to present the Admiral AC-ONE 45 Openworked Tourbillon, a grand complication timepiece that marks another milestone for the brand.”
