Introduced in 1966, the Romvlvs models make reference to watchmaking art in its purest form, and have made its mark on watchmaking history. This model is in fact the first watch to display a dial without hourmarkers and having the index engraved on the bezel. Interpreting the classical codes of the brand, the Romvlvs collection was enriched in 2008 by two major complications: a perpetual calendar and a retrograde annual calendar. In 2010, CORUM pushes technical boundaries to their limits by offering a Romvlvs Billionnaire Tourbillon demonstrating the brand’s remarkable talents.

The ultimate expression of refinement and brilliance the Romvlvs Billionaire Tourbillon stages the tourbillon movement crafted on sapphire bridges and a plate on an amphitheatre of diamonds. Endowed with a 90-hour power reserve, prevailing on its sapphire crystal throne the tourbillon is a truly exceptional creation. The mainplate and the three bridges are made of sapphire crystal, a very delicate and brittle material. Framing the movement like a genuine work of art, the white gold case is set with 164 diamonds, accentuating the precious appearance of this exceptional timepiece. 

True to the aesthetical codes of the Romvlvs collections since 1966, the bezel bears the Roman numerals drawn by 44 baguette diamonds using the invisible diamond setting technique. At the heart of this diamond fairy tale of 4.7ct, this stunning movement is beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour. Water-resistant to 30 meters, the inimitable cambered case typical to the Romvlvs, measures 45mm.
