Corum "Rolls Royce" In 18K Yellow Gold With Diamonds
The Inside Story
This funky and rare timepiece, Reference 55 79 256, is a tribute to the opulence of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, featuring a 31mm x 32mm 18k yellow gold case. The design, inspired by the iconic radiator grille, includes sculpted lugs, a miniature ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ mascot perched gracefully atop the case, and a dazzling row of diamonds framing the grille.
The gold-toned dial continues the theme with its distinctive grille pattern, paired with elegant gold dauphine hands. The caseback reveals a hand-finished, manually wound movement through a sapphire crystal aperture. This limited-edition piece (1 of 60, produced in 1997) is individually numbered on the side of the case, adding to its exclusivity.
Completing the design is a custom-cut alligator leather strap, fitted with an 18k gold Corum pin buckle. The watch has been fully serviced by our watchmaker and is ready to steal the show, whether at a car meet or a formal event.

We offer a one-year warranty on the mechanical function of the watch, starting from the day of purchase.
