Corum, a brand best known for their gold pieces, snuck this c.1980 Sterling Silver piece in under the radar
From a company that employs bird feathers for dials, I expected something no less quirky than a mirror as this watch’s centrepiece. The minimalist dial is decorated by black baton hands, the brand’s applied logo, ‘Corum’ and ‘Swiss Made’
The bezel remains in good shape with only minor surface scratches and bears the Swiss ‘Canard’ hallmark for Sterling Silver
The case-back, although scratched to the outside, again bears elegant Swiss hallmarks to the inside
The original winding crown is set with a cabochon synthetic sapphire
The black leather strap and chrome buckle are in good condition
The Swiss-made, Corum signed manual wind movement runs smoothly and keeps excellent time
