Corum Supports Melges 24 World Championship

Corum replica watches are enjoying the world appreciation for their exclusive quality, style and design.

The year 2005 marked the celebration of Corum’s 50th anniversary. The Swiss watchmaking company decided to sponsor the World Championship of the International Melges 24 Class.

The event is sure to attract more than 80 boats from the USA and many other countries of the world. America's Cup sailors and Olympic winners as well as world champions from various international classes will be taking part. Corum’s sponsorship of this prestige and highly competitive sailboat racing class reflects the brand’s continuous support of teams and venues at the highest levels of sailboat racing.

Corum represents an independent, family-owned company that has been developing high-quality luxury Swiss timepieces since 1955. For more than twenty years the Company has encouraged the British Admiral's Cup as a team and event sponsor. In 1991, a French team supported by Corum gained the victory in the Admiral's Cup. Corum has also been active at sponsoring entries in world match racing, 60-foot offshore events and the Tour de France à la Voile.

Ocean Reef Club has become the organizer of the World Championship. The competition will start from the northern tip of Key Largo, situated just 50 miles south of Miami. The club-community has taken care of presidents, and heads of state, sports celebrities and movie stars, diplomats and the most prominent business people in the United States. It was established in 1945 as a private fishing club that has kept its status till today.

Ocean Reef Club has been honored by the past association with the Melges 24 regattas and really appreciates to have been selected as the host site for the 2005 World Championship. The Melges participants will be pleased by all comforts and conveniences provided by the Club.

This year Melges 24 fleets are competing in sailing across North America, Europe and Asia. Corum's generous sponsorship support united with the matchless facilities of Ocean Reef Club, will guarantee a memorable event.
