The Romulus collection represents an important innovation created by Corum watches, a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1955 in La Chaux de Fonds.
The brand introduced its first watch in 1966 when it launched the Romulus which displayed Roman numerals on its bezel instead of its dial to produce a distinctive design that remains unmatched in the watchmaking industry.
The watch design includes a case back engraving of a laurel crown which honors Romulus, the legendary founder of Rome through its classical Roman symbolic inspiration.
