This watch was dubbed the most expensive and heaviest men's timepiece in the industry, not only at Corum Replica but across the board.
Never before - a watch that is so new, so different, and so harmoniously classic. The King Midas watch was named after the legendary king who had the golden touch. It is made from solid 18ct yellow gold and sculpted in a block. Each watch is a wonderful solid mass of 18ct gold. It's very heavy, and very expensive.
You may not be in a position to afford it, but you cannot afford to miss out on seeing one. Come daydream. See Midas. Touch Midas. "A real gold masterpiece, which no picture can do justice to."(www.trustytimenoob.com)
This is a watchmaking expression at its extreme. The Midas was not needed. Corum Replica was able to and did make a watch which would function at the Marianas Trench, 11 km below the surface of the ocean. The fact that Corum Replica, at the time of developing the Deepsea model for the Trieste bathyscaphe expedition to the deepest point in the world with its hemispherical glass watch was also working on an almost diametrically opposite watch is amazing.
Corum Replica responded to a new kind of timepiece with the Midas: In 1957, Piaget's family firm, which had supplied movements until the 1940s, launched the calibre 9P. This ultra-thin, hand-wound, 2mm-high movement enabled the creation of elegant dress watches of avant-garde designs,Breitling Replica Watches many of which featured exotic stone dials. Corum Replica would prove its fluency in a new language of horological decoration with the Midas. The King Midas ref. is also a very unusual Corum Replica. The 9630 was limited by 1,000 pieces, with the number being engraved near the junction of the case and bracelet.
When laid flat, the straight side is angled at a point, while the angled side is straight. This resembles the pediment of a classic building. One advertisement explained that the packaging was a modern tribute paid to ancient Greece. Anyone who even glanced at the packaging was aware of its debt to ancient Greece.
