Since its introduction in 1966, when it
was bold enough to break free of the dial
and to display hour numerals on its bezel,
Romvlvs has become a classic in fine
traditional watchmaking. It currently
represents one of the four main pillars of
the Corum collection.
Romvlvs Large Date continues the development
of the Romvlvs line with a new
movement, featuring a large date function
and a design that plays on the aesthetic of
materials to soften the shapes and further enhance
their timeless elegance. It delicately
marries the satin-brushed finish of a stainless
steel case with the brilliance of a polished
18kt red gold bezel, istinguished by a cambered
profile (the signature feature of the
new Romvlvs models) engraved with 12
Roman numerals. The process of stamping
this bezel involves
50 separate operations in
order to achieve the perfect relief, shape and
finish of the Roman numerals. The characteristic
curve of the bezel is enhanced by the
scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that is convex
on top and concave below. A special tool
has been developed to individually hand-fit
each crystal into its bezel while guaranteeing
a perfectly watertight seal. This finish features
an additional touch of refinement in
the shape of the mirror-polish on the bezel
surface, creating a striking contrast with the
satin-brushed Roman numerals.
In Romvlvs Large Date, refinement
meets elegance in a strategic alliance between
red gold and steel. |
