Corum Admiral’s Cup Challenger 48 Chronograph Limited Edition 753.935.06/0371 AN52 – Limited 350 Pieces

The Corum Admiral’s Cup Challenger 48 Chronograph, reference 753.935.06/0371 AN52, is a bold and commanding timepiece that pays homage to Corum’s long-standing association with the world of sailing. Released as a limited edition of just 350 pieces, this model embodies the brand’s adventurous spirit and design ethos, making it an ideal companion for both sea and land.

The watch features a 48mm stainless steel case with Corum’s signature twelve-sided bezel, a hallmark of the Admiral’s Cup collection since its debut in 1960. Its sheer size and geometric profile give the watch a powerful wrist presence, while the brushed and polished finishing adds a refined edge. The screw-down crown with crown guards, together with the engraved caseback featuring the Admiral’s Cup trophy motif and the individual limited edition number, reinforce its status as both a functional tool and a collector’s piece.

The dial is finished in stealthy matte black, with applied nautical pennant indices around the chapter ring, a subtle nod to the maritime roots of the Admiral’s Cup. The chronograph layout is classic tri-compax:

A 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock

A 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock

A small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock

The central chronograph hand, bold luminous markers, and faceted sword-style hands ensure maximum legibility. A discreet date aperture is positioned between 4 and 5 o’clock.

At the heart of this Challenger 48 Chronograph is the automatic Corum Caliber CO753, based on the tried-and-tested ETA Valjoux 7753. This self-winding movement beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offers a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. The movement is robust and reliable, perfectly suited to withstand the demands of sports timing and everyday wear. 

The Corum Admiral’s Cup Challenger 48 Chronograph Limited Edition stands as a perfect balance of ruggedness, precision, and nautical heritage. With its commanding 48mm case, reliable Valjoux-based movement, and maritime design DNA, it is a collector’s statement piece that celebrates Corum’s adventurous vision.
