Back in 2016, we had a chance to go hands-on together with the Corum Watches Malaysia Golden Bridge Round which was a departure from past Golden Bridge watches by employing a round event rather than the angular scenarios the collection had been known for. To get Baselworld 2017, designer Dino Modolo helps return the Golden Bridge into its ancestral roots with the Corum Golden Bridge Rectangle. Since its initial release in 1980, the Corum Golden Bridge has observed over a couple of variants, and this model retains the collection’s trademark feature – a movement that shows the entire transfer of energy from its spring barrel in 6 o’clock to the escapement at 12 o’clock. The caliber CO113 is what Corum describes as an “in-line baguette” movement, which has all its components stacked up in a column-like form. Like the numerals, the bridge structure that supports the movement is made from 18k gold and decorated with a variety of engravings alongside the brand name. This unique movement design permits the wearer to look at every component in motion as electricity is moved from 1 end of this case to another. The comprehensive execution of this 18-karat golden Roman numeral constructions and rivets that encircle the movement are extremely cool to look at it – it feels like something King Midas would approve of.The grade CO113 is what Corum refers to as an “in-line baguette” movement, which includes all of its parts piled up in an column-like shape.
