Corum uses the face or tail of a US gold coin as the dial; the ultra-thin movement is placed between the two sides of a cut out coin and enclosed by the circular case whose edges are grooved like those of coin.
In choosing the $10 American Eagle or the $20 American Double Eagle, Corum immediately became a watch icon in the USA.
The obvious rarity of these coins, enhanced by the fact that the Coin Watch was seen on the wrists of several American presidents, made this timepiece an avidly sought after collector’s item in the United States.
After several years of interruption, Corum has now again started production of this unique timekeeper, taking advantage of the brand’s current technical prowess. In this regard, the Coin Watch is emblematic of Corum’s watchmaking approach, which looks for originality and ways to combine the latest in technology with daring creativity.

LTFL obtained this new and unworn Corum 18kt yellow gold US $ 10 gold coin watch from a retailer who recently closed. This stunning example of the iconic Corum gold coin series, that catapulted them to household name status was purchased by the retailer when they were an authorized Corum dealer. It is in flawless condition, with all correct Corum markings and gold hallmarks. The shiny dark brown croco strap well complements the rich gold found in the case and coin. While this striking piece was proudly displayed in the retailer's showroom, they experienced some damage to their storage area, so, while LTFL can authenticate the history of this unworn timepiece, it is sold without accompanying manuals. It is sold with a padded storage case, and represents a unique opportunity to own a new Corum coin series watch at an extremely attractive price.
