The Corum Story
The adventure of Corum kicks off with Rene Bannwart. With his strong business skills and watchmaking experience acquired from the most prestigious watch manufacturers, he founded his brand and created Corum in 1955 with his uncle Gaston Ries.
Particularly fascinated by the word "quorum," which means the minimum number of people present and necessary to hold discussions and make valid decisions, however Rene Bannwart simplified the spelling to Corum.
Right from the time of its creation in 1955 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Corum displayed a determination to position itself at the forefront of the Swiss watch industry.
