Corum Dress watch Peacock

Some watches tell more than just time , they tell stories of art, nature, and bold imagination.
This Corum Peacock Dress Watch from the 1980s is one such story, captured in gold and feathers , a timepiece as mesmerizing as the bird from which it takes its name. A peacock is proud, elegant, and a touch unconventional , qualities perfectly embodied in this Corum masterpiece. Crafted from 18-carat yellow gold, the watch radiates warmth and richness, yet it’s the dial made of real peacock feathers that commands all the attention. No imitation, no printed pattern , but real, carefully selected feathers, laid using the centuries-old plumasserie technique.

Each feather is meticulously chosen for its color, symmetry, and texture, then steam-cleaned and trimmed with surgical precision. A master of marquetry then arranges the delicate strands by hand, creating a mosaic that shifts in hue with every movement of light. Depending on how the dial catches it, you’ll see tones of sapphire blue, emerald green, and bronze , like the graceful dance of a peacock in full display. The gold crown, adorned with a deep-blue sapphire cabochon, echoes the vibrant tones of the dial , a subtle detail that completes the watch’s harmony. Inside beats a hand-wound mechanical movement, faithful and precise, keeping time in the traditional way that only a classic mechanical heart can.

In the 1970s and 1980s, this model was especially cherished in the Arab world, where the peacock symbolized beauty, pride, and eternity. Today, it returns as a rare collector’s piece, gradually captivating Europe once again , not merely as a timekeeper, but as a work of art.

This is not a watch that shouts, but one that whispers , with the shimmer of feathers, the heart of mechanics, and the soul of an artist.
A discreet peacock, elegant and enchanting, revealing a new secret every time you glance at it.
