CHRONOSWISS
Under the direction of the original founder Gerd Lang, Chronoswiss embraced and exemplified how the mechanics of a watch can also be a driving aesthetic. Showing the inner components so carefully crafted and finished has become one of the brand’ s calling cards since it was established. This same“ inside is out” approach has recently evolved and realized a rebirth under the guidance of the new leadership at Chronoswiss. Now actively back in the USA, it may be time to add a new Chronoswiss to your own collection.
CORUM
Corum’ s Bubble watches can adapt to almost any design school. Whether playful, scary, avant garde, erotic or whatever, the magnifying nature of the Bubble’ s huge sapphire dome amplifies whatever art form may lie beneath. The simple round case does not distract, and until now the complexity of the movement within was not really a focus. This is all changing with Corum’ s new“ 47 Swoosh.” Although the name may be playful, Corum is showing a serious side to watchmaking and has cleverly used the ultimate Cyclops magnifier centered directly over the central tourbillon to blow up preconceptions about the Bubble.
