Corum Admirals Cup Seafender 48 Chrono Centro The Jules Verne Trophy Edition

For many years, the famous Swiss brand supports Banque Populaire and one of the most demanding nautical challenges: Trophée Jules Verne. The Jules Verne Trophy is awarded to the first yacht which sailed around the world in less than 80 days. The name of the award is obviously a reference to the Jules Verne’s novel Around the World in Eighty Days.

To celebrate this year’s competition, Corum presents this great new addition to the Admiral’s Cup collection, a dedicated piece devoted to the world of sailing and its enthusiasts. The case is crafted in titanium and measures 48 millimeters in diameter. It bears the name of the team member as well as two commemorative inscriptions: Trophée Jules Verne 2012 and Maxi Banque Populaire V.

Black dial with Clous de Paris motif also bears “Trophée Jules Verne 2012” inscription and offers indications for hours, minutes, small seconds, date, and a chronograph function. Facetted hour and minute hands are coated with black Superluminova while 60-minutes chronograph hand shines in vibrant yellow hue, when the lights go down.

The watch is propelled by COSC certified self-winding chronograph movement CO960. The movement beats at 28.800 vibrations per hour and provides 42 hours of power reserve. Water resistant to 100 meters and mounted on black leather strap with textile look.
