CorumAdmiralModel No: 277.101.04/F373 AB12-G20A

Corum Admiral is a watch with a celebrated legacy, loved for its distinctive dodecagonal case and appealing heft. So, when the house decided to iterate such an iconic style, it had to be nothing but extraordinary. And extraordinary is the Admiral AC-One 45 Tides, first released in 1993 with such unique complications that its equal has not been found since.

This Admiral AC-One 45 Tides is the paradigm of nautical watchmaking, manifesting the house's maritime fondness most tastefully. It is powered by a highly-efficient automatic mechanical movement - calibre CO277. In addition to the conventional hours, minutes, seconds, and date functions, this calibre also wields several interesting navigation-related complications, displayed attractively on the dial. The charming blue dial bears a sub-dial at 12, featuring a moonphase complication to determine the tidal movements. Additionally, this sub-dial specifies the strength of the tides. Therefore, if it's a full or black moon, the strength of the tides would be at its peak, i.e. between 95 and 120. It would gradually dip to 20-45 during the first and last moon quarters. At six o'clock is a sub-register indicating the time of the two succeeding tides in the next 24 hours through a 24-hour scale and white arrow pointers. And finally, will the tides rise or ebb can be comprehended with the aid of the sub-counter at nine.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
