Swiss watch manufacturer Corum knows how to make a splash—since 1955
they have produced an array of splendid timepieces that boasts unique
case and dial designs. The Bubble collection is highly regarded and
contains an array of thrilling watches and desk clocks.
A fascinating collaboration between
surrealist artist Pedro Friedeberg and Corum, we believe this timepiece
will make an essential addition to your collection.
As a limited-edition watch, only 99
pieces were produced, making it a challenge to obtain. In this
collaboration with Friedeberg, you get to own a functional objet d’art
that will surely serve as a thrilling conversation piece.
Friedeberg is an eccentric and
multidisciplinary artist and designer who has been active in many
diverse and renowned arts groups over the years. His long list of
partners in crime include such legendary artists as Leonora Carrington
and Remedios Varo.
Witness Friedeberg’s talents amidst
the circles of op-art upon the black-colored dial, which also sports
large Arabic numerals at 12 and 6 as well as luminescent leaf-shaped
hands with a center seconds hand. But wait, at 3 o’clock, what do we
have here? In a playful quotation of his best-known work we see one of
his sculptural hand chairs.
The stainless steel case with Black
PVD treatment resists scratches and measures 47 mm in diameter, 18.5 mm
in height, and rests upon a black leather strap with a Black PVD-coated
stainless steel tang buckle. Additional features include a push / pull
winding crown, a domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a water

The self-winding automatic Corum CO
082 caliber is a COSC-certified chronometer, giving you accuracy that
