Sasho -- I think that 44mm is perfect on you, suspect the 48mm may be a little big, alas. After stalking this thread and the official site for a while, I may have to have a look at some of these the next time I am in my ADs... I highly doubt they will have any of the 40mm lady sizes, but you never know! I really like the 44mm you have on in this shot-- I have the same problem as you, except one size down-- I wanted the 44mm, but I am guessing it would look like the 48mm did on you!

There's something very innovative and unusual about this brand, may have to consider it for my next watch, as well...

I agree with everything you guys say. I was hesitant about my first Corum purchase, but since then I've really grown to appreciate it. The faceted body and bezel make them instantly recognizable, and I get numerous comments about my Black Flag, more than for any other watch I own.

Fear, did your's come with the commemorative case and date pusher?

Love the blue accents!!

Oh boy, the guy with wrists the size of dix :poke: FML LOL

I work out like 4 times a week and take protein shakes twice a day to bulk up, its just that my wrists are very bony :( other than that I weigh 165 pounds. I guess I have a small wrist complex and have to compensate with a huge watch :lol: I could always slap a couple of Alberta steaks on my wrists and then wrap the watch around :idea:

Glad you guys like how it fits because like I said before I quite liked it and its really comfortable as well. I do like the white but will see if I can find something in the limited edition, if not, I will bargain for a really good deal on the Challenge 44mm since I really liked it and I can only imagine how nice and different it would look on a brown croco.

anez: The AD I went to didn't have any of the 40mm unfortunately. I strongly suggest you go see them in person. Fear is right, even if they are a 44mm it doesn't wear that big, it seems a bit smaller. If you get the chance to try one on make sure to take some pics. There isn't that much on Corums online and its up to us to change that :twisted:

I am very glad to have discovered this brand and to have tried one on. I am seriously contemplating getting one soon. Furthermore, the comments here only confirm my thoughts.

Btw, I just got my watch winder so now I have to fill it up with some watches...ahahahahaa...I will take pics of it later if some folks are interested (nothing special just a cheap diplomat) now I have to go pack since I am leaving in the morning for Europe for the holidays. Hope my flights are not canceled due to all the snow...

WE GOT SOME IN STOCK, SO WE WOULD NATURALLY HOOK UP ANYONE JUST LIKE WE DO ON THE BREITLINGS! TOO BAD THERE IS NO CORUM FORUM ANYWHERE.

That's the one I was thinking of--

There are actually a few versions of this model (white face with colored markers, black with colored markers, this black/grey combo and a white/grey combo, too, as well as two gold models which are not my thing) and I'm not even sure which one I like the most. However, I have... pretty much decided that my collection is missing an all-black watch, so I may have to consider this one. Other contenders are the JLC MC Diving Lady Ceramic GMT and a Chanel j12 (I know, I know, but I would have to buy the JLC abroad and and it's twice the price of the Chanel)... Anyone know the price of this model, just for comparison? Model no. 984.970.97/f371 an32...

Might be a bit too blingy for me in person, though, I'll have to see-- the only other watch I have with diamonds is my TAG and that's only a 27mm or something, and I didn't even go for the full diamond bezel because I thought it was too much... I'm a low-bling kind of person, lol.

So after some more research and looking for a limited edition I found this one in a size that would fit:

Corum Admiral's Cup Chronograph 44 Centro Mono-Pusher

I also think they had one at my local AD so I could try it when I get back. How much do they go for? Limited to 555.

Very cool. I think that's my favorite Corum that I've seen so far.

Sasho, I think that size fits your d*ck wrist just fine. Especially since the camera always seems to make watches look bigger on the wrist than in real life.

I saw this one the other day too. Looks better in the flesh. Comes in black, white or this model. What's really different about this one is the steel case and bracelet with a rubber accent down the middle, along with the black bezel. Really stood out.
