Corum is a Swiss luxury watchmaker founded in 1955 in La Chaux-de-Fonds by René Bannwart and Gaston Ries, known for innovative designs like the Coin Watch, worn by U.S. presidents and Andy Warhol. Its most iconic collections include the nautical-inspired Admiral’s Cup, the technically groundbreaking Golden Bridge with a linear movement, and the bold Bubble with a domed sapphire crystal. After changing ownership multiple times—including a period under Hong Kong’s Citychamp group—Corum returned to Swiss hands in 2025 through a management buyout led by CEO Haso Mehmedovic. The brand now plans a global relaunch focused on creative watchmaking and restoring its position in high-end horology.
