CORUM – BIG BUBBLE Magical MATT BARNES




















CORUMBubble BIG BUBBLE Magical MATT BARNES Automatic Titanium 52 mm

Big Bubble Magical Voodoo
Let yourself be spellbound

Fascinating, disconcerting and astounding, Corum presents a dark and exciting Bubble. This new
addition to the impressive Bubble collection is the result of a partnership between the Canadian
photographer Matt Barnes and the Swiss master watchmaker.

Matt Barnes lives in a pop-inspired world that combines old school with the latest trends. With his
head in the clouds but his feet on the ground, the born dreamer took this brilliant photograph of a
voodoo figure, which showcases the talented photographer’s keen eye.

Bringing nuances to the dark tones of the dial and its relief, the titanium case and vulcanised rubber
strap also feature dark and mysterious colours. The ever more original Bubble reveals a watch without
numerals that hides its hands inside the dial, heightening the mystery radiating from the model.
In keeping with its innovative direction, Corum is presenting a Bubble in an all-new Big format so as to
better showcase the works held tenderly captive by the famous sapphire dome and to give the whole
piece a marvellously bubble-like effect.
