A world first for this avant-garde timepieces. The Corum Dual Winder system features two inline-mounted circular oscillating weights that are interconnected via a transmission arbor that makes them move in parallel. Thanks to three integrated stacked mechanisms at 9 o\u2019clock (a ball bearing device and two unidirectional ball-bearing clutches) made in ceramics and thus requiring no lubrication, the winding is efficient in both directions of the oscillating weights\u2019 rotations.

Powered by the CO 313 movement with a platinum linear oscillating weight (visible on either side of the case), it is also equipped with a variable-inertia balance ensuring excellent precision. The quintessence of Fine Watchmaking. Housed within an instantly recognizable tonneau-shaped case, it entirely reveals its heart when not worn, while becoming opaque once attached to the wrist \u2013 which is thus hidden from sight so as to highlight the magic of an exclusive linear mechanism. The secret of this fascinating orchestration lies in a sapphire dial featuring a metallic striped motif. This ingenious two-part element is fitted behind the caliber at the heart of the tonneau-shaped case featuring four sapphire crystals. This stunningly transparent architecture creates a fascinating play on perspective, in turn concealing or revealing the elements exterior to the watch itself.
