Corum release the latest in their highly distinctive nautical-inspired series – the Admiral’s Cup Black Chronograph 40. The piece measures a slightly more petite 40mm and is sure to appeal to any sailing diva. All the usual functions are present along with the now iconic nautical pennants and Corum key on the seconds hand.

The Chronograph 40 features an combination of 66 diamonds and black PVD-treated steel presented on a chunky rubber strap – a mix which some manufacturers wouldn’t get away with but one which Corum being Corum manage to harmonize.

Two versions are available, black dial limited to 355 pieces and a more exclusive white dial limited to 155 pieces – just don’t check the time while sailing into the sun, those blinding diamonds might just knock you off your course.
