Encased in solid 18k yellow gold, the oversized rectangular case (30 × 35 mm)commands presence, exuding both glamour and architectural precision—an unmistakable hallmark of Corum’s avant-garde spirit during this era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"610\" data-end=\"655\"\u003eA Dazzling Dial – Diamond Pavé Perfection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"657\" data-end=\"1099\"\u003eThe dial is a true spectacle: fully set with diamonds in a meticulous pavé configuration, transforming the watch face into a field of light. Each stone has been hand-set with exceptional precision, creating a seamless, radiant surface that captures and reflects light from every angle. The Corum logo, subtly engraved within the sapphire glass, produces a unique floating effect—an innovative and highly uncommon feature for its time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1376\"\u003eThis exact configuration, combining the pavé diamond dial and jumbo-sized gold case, does not appear in any known Corum catalogues or archives. Its rarity strongly suggests a special commission, possibly for a distinguished client or VIP patron of the brand in the 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1378\" data-end=\"1424\"\u003e18k Yellow Gold Jumbo Case – Bold Elegance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1763\"\u003eThe oversized rectangular case defines the watch’s character—bold yet refined. The substantial dimensions (30 × 35 mm) reflect Corum’s fascination with proportion and modernist aesthetics, making it a standout piece on the wrist. Despite its generous size, the curved lugs and elegant profile ensure balanced wearability and comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1765\" data-end=\"1817\"\u003eManual-Wind Movement – Traditional Craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1819\" data-end=\"2169\"\u003eAt its heart lies a manual-wind movement, emblematic of Swiss horological artistry before the quartz revolution.
