New addition to the collection

I don't know how I was able to snag this up (at a discount at that!!!), but I am not complaining... This is a Corum Admiral's Cup Competition 48mm Black Flag, limited to 100 pieces - and it is a keeper. I received it yesterday and it hasn't come off my wrist! To be as beefy as it is, it's light (titanium), so an EXTREMELY comfortable wear.

I have seen quite a few pics of those
What a great looking watch!

I love the lume and the date dial!

Wanna adopt a 35 yr old son??

day ;)

Always enjoy seeing your pics!

Man - I think I have enough children - a 13 year-old, a 14 month-old and twins coming in May. With you I would have my own starting five

If you even come to visit - you're welcome to sport it for a few days!

Thanks! I was turned away from Corum when the whole 'bubble' craze took over, but now they're coming out with some sweet ones. And the movement is not an ETA, but a LaJoux-Perret, so not exactly in-house, but not a run-of-the-mill stock movement either. I love it!

Oh Mosco...
Don't dump on the bubble.
I REALLY want a bubble skeleton if
I can ever find a steal of a deal. The
rest of them are worthless but that was
quite a cool skeleton watch!

Corum is a boating watch for sure and they
made a big leap trying the bubble and in some
aspect it worked as it introduced lots of people
to the brand who never knew it before.

It is a biiiig sucker! Believe it or not, it dwarfs a AP ROO (most of them anyway, definitely excluding the Shaq). I will take couple wrist shots as soon as I return - had to get outa town for few days on business. Took my XXI only - man's best friend!
