The history of this Corum Miss Golden Bridge
The House of Corum has always cultivated a singular architectural boldness. By creating the linear movement in the late 1970s alongside watchmaker Vincent Calabrese, the brand disrupted traditional codes by eliminating the classic mainplate. The Corum Miss Golden Bridge reference 113.560.59 celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the Neuchâtel manufacture. Produced in only 50 examples in white gold, this piece adapts the famous linear calibre to the female wrist through a delicately curved tonneau case. The original concept answered the desire to reveal the entire mechanism by making the dial superfluous in favour of total transparency. The addition of a suspended diamond breaks the strict symmetry of the vertical axis to create a unique visual dialogue between gem-setting and micro-mechanics.
Case, calibre and bracelet of this Miss Golden Bridge
Crafted in 18-carat white gold, the 43 mm by 21 mm structure adopts a fully polished tonneau shape. This three-dimensional showcase uses four domed sapphire crystals to offer a panoramic view of its internal architecture. The hand-wound calibre CO 113 floats at the centre of the case. Built in a linear construction, it totals 19 jewels and beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour while guaranteeing a 40-hour power reserve. Its solid gold bridges feature meticulous hand-engraved floral motifs. Two white side plates bear painted black Roman numerals for reading the time indicated by skeletonised sword-shaped hands. A 0.25-carat Top Wesselton brilliant-cut diamond is bezel-set in the lower right section. The fluted winding crown is cleverly concealed at 6 o’clock to preserve the purity of the overall design. The watch is fitted with a textured black leather strap secured by a white gold pin buckle engraved with the brand name.
