Description
Montres Corum Sàrl, commonly referred to as Corum, is a Swiss watchmaker based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Canton of Neuchâtel, founded in 1955. The Romvlvs timepiece was created by accident. In 1966, when Corum received the dials for its newly created Romvlvs in the run-up to the Baselworld show, the hour markers were missing. The supplier had forgotten to add them. Corum founder René Bannwart decided to go ahead with the Basel launch anyway. As an emergency measure, he had the hour markers engraved directly on the bezel. Thus the Romvlvs was born, and it would go on to become one of the brand’s greatest successes.
This Romvlvs perpetual calendar features a black crocodile leather strap, fixed Roman numeral rose gold bezel, black dial with rose gold-tone hands and minute markers around the outer rim. The dial type is analog. The date is displayed at the 3 o'clock position. Automatic movement. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Water resistant 30m. Functions with hour, minute, second and perpetual calendar. This watch comes with the full set of papers and box.
