The year of 2010 marks the 30th anniversary of Corum’s legendary Golden Bridge movement. To celebrate the brand’s icon’s 30th birthday, Corum has released two new models combining both femininity and masculinity. The two model – Miss Golden Bridge and Golden Bridge 2010 for men, demonstrate perfect expression of the values of the company: legitimacy and pioneering spirit.Today, I will bring you the ultimately feminine Miss Golden Bridge, the first Golden Bridge timepiece exclusive for ladies.

The launch of the Miss Golden Bridge is certainly timely rain. Before the creation of this watch design milestone, women who was loving the Golden Bridge models needed to make their selection from amongst the masculine models and the high jewelry pieces. With this elegant watch, everything changes, but ultimately nothing changes.

I say everyhing changes as the iconic movement is housed in a brandly new case. The case is revisited in a very feminine manner, in a slender and curved tonneau shape. Open above, below and also on its sides, the unique case features the remarkable transparency that enables us to admire the Golden Bridge from all sides: a masterpiece of micromechanics offering a balance wheel with variable inertia, a barrel with slipping spring, power reserve of 40 hours, 4 hertz frequency ensuring reliability and precision, and hand-engraved bridges and plate made of fine gold.

So ultimately nothing changes as the Golden Bridge mvoment remains a strong haute horlogerie creation, encased in less than a half-cubic centimeter. The two slender bridges made of fine gold are adorned with engravings replicating the shape of tree ferns from the Jura region. Moreover, wheels in motions seem to dance magically between the bridge, while the hands are crafted in the same gold as the case for consistency. Slender and delicately decorated, the caliber CO113 gives femininity and refinement to this striking timepiece.

Thanks to this highly complicated manufactured movement, no more than 333 pieces a year are made available for the Miss Golden Bridge. The timepiece will be available in 18 carat white or red gold, in non set and set versions with 90 full-cut size diamonds.
