Admiral's Cup Ac-One 45 Regatta
As a longstanding partner of some of the most prestigious regattas and prominent sailors such as Loïck Peyron and Ben Ainslie, the development of a caliber combining a countdown function with a chronograph was a logical step for Corum. Indeed, the Admiral’s Cup AC-One 45 Regatta is equipped with a regatta function entirely developed by Corum.
The Admiral's Cup Ac-One 45 Regatta beats to the tune of a new automatic caliber: the CO 040. The CO 040 calibre features a countdown timer that is adjustable from 0 to 10 minutes, a numerical aperture-type display, as well as a chronograph capable of timing up to 12 hours of racing.
While the collection was entirely redesigned in 2013, the 45 mm-diameter case is entirely in line with the original identity codes of the Admiral’s Cup collection, including a twelve-sided bezel and the nautical pennants on the inner bezel ring. Within this smoothly integrated architecture with alternating polished and satinbrushed finishes, black PVD-treated inserts are embedded between the case middle and back as well as between the bezel and the case middle. The case made in grade 5 titanium with a black PVD-coated bezel is water-resistant to 300 meters and fitted with a transparent sapphire back revealing the finishes adorning Caliber CO 040 and its black PVD-coated oscillating weight.
The GPHG is intended to salute the excellence of worldwide horological production and annually rewards the finest creations and the most important operators in the watchmaking sector.
