Revealed at Baselworld, the Corum Admiral's Cup Legend 46 Minute Repeater Acoustica is the first minute repeater with 4 gongs that produce 4 notes - two chords at the same time for hours and two for minutes.

The Acoustica comes in Corum's signature dodecagonal shaped 46 mm x 14.44 mm case. The case, bezel crown and crown protector are in grade 5 titanium. There is no dial, instead the hours markers are engraved on the flange, allowing for a perfect view into the hand decorated mechanical movement. The hour and minute hands are dauphine-variant shaped that have been skeletonzied and Rhodium coated.

The Acoustica is powered by manually wound caliber CO102, which has 42-jewels, a balance cadence of 21,600 vph (3Hz) and a 100-hour power reserve. Functions include minutes, hours and minute repeater. The bezel winds (27 degrees) to start the minute repeater function.

There is a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both the front and back of the watch, allowing a view into the movement from either side. Water-resistance is 30 meters. Comes with a black crocodile leather strap that is 23 mm at the lugs, and 20 mm at the buckle. Tongue buckle in grade 5 titanium with engraved Corum logo. Limited to 8 pieces worldwide.
