曾經聽別人說過：「出生那一天就是邁向死亡的開始」，雖然這句話聽起來非常不友善，但是死亡後的世界，也的確是現在科技無法揭開它神祕面紗的謎之國度。正因為讓人摸不著頭緒，才更刺激了許多人躍躍欲試地想一虧究竟。真的要舉例子的話，瑞士腕錶品牌崑崙表可說是其中的佼佼者。
從2000年崑崙表推出第一只泡泡錶開始，死亡與魔鬼的意象就一直和泡泡錶的設計有所連結。然而過去大多以骷髏和魔鬼等西洋符號作為主角的泡泡錶，這次罕見地突破框架，將充滿東洋風格，並且被日本武士大量運用的「おにOni妖怪面具」重現在那誇張的凸圓形藍寶石水晶鏡面下。
Bubble 47 Diablo 崑崙表的武士道
最新的 Bubble Diablo 腕錶從日本武士在出征時所配戴的妖怪面具(Oni mask)得到靈感。不僅大膽地打破以往泡泡錶凸顯西方色彩的形象，更加深東方文化的元素與日本歷史結合，目的就是要將看待生命與死亡的觀點透過泡泡錶重新詮釋。
新款Bubble Diablo在設計上重現了許多妖怪面具的特點，甚至連緊皺的鼻子也原汁原味地呈現。但並不只形象上複製妖怪面具，武士們所用的鎧甲及武士刀也成為設計元素之一。
全金屬面盤凸顯了武士刀對武士的重要性，妖怪面具邊緣的輪廓則是來自武士刀護手的意象，此外更以拋光面盤為底，搭配經過環形打磨的妖怪面具輪廓，象徵武士刀的潔淨與戰場上殺戮之慘的強烈對比。此外，崑崙表特別將計時功能的30分鐘累計盤及小秒盤指針製成飛鏢造型，並且塗上鮮艷的紅色，讓整個面具看起來炯炯有神。
日本武士的妖怪面具
日本武士所帶的妖怪面具起源於江戶時代(1603-1867)，當時日本武士階級類似於歐洲的騎士，是來自地方家族中有實力的成員，代表著各別氏族在領地的勢力與影響力，在國家政權與局勢中扮演重要角色。為了在戰場上威嚇來自敵對氏族的武士，得到先聲奪人的效果，江戶時代的武士大多會戴上結合妖怪形象所製作的面具，帶給敵人有如看到死神般的心理壓力。

Some might say: "The day you are born, that is the beginning of your journey to death." Although this sentence sounds very bizarre, the world after death is actual that our technology cannot reveal its mystery. Precisely saying, because people can't figure it out that it stimulates many people to think about what is going on eagerly. If you really want to give an example, perhaps, Corum can be one of the best.
Since Corum launched the first bubble watch in 2000, the images of death and the devil have been linked to the bubble watch collection. However, most of the bubble with Western symbols such as skulls and devils as the protagonists. This time Bubble 47 Diablo will be full of Oriental styles, such as the "おに Oni Monster Mask".
Bubble 47 Diablo Corum's Bushido
The Japanese samurai's Oni mask inspires the latest Bubble Diablo watch. It boldly breaks the previous Bubble Watch that highlights Western culture. Instead, the Bubble 47 Diablo Corum integrates Eastern culture elements with Japanese history.
The new Bubble Diablo is designed to reproduce many monster masks' characteristics, and even the wrinkled nose is authentically presented. However, it is not only the monster mask that reproduced in the image, the armour and the samurai sword have also become one of the design elements.
The all-metal case highlights the importance of the katana to the samurai. The outline of the edge of the monster mask is the image of the samurai sword guard. It also based on the polished case with the shape of the katana. Besides, Corum specially made the 30-minute counter and small seconds dial of the chronograph function into a dart shape. They have painted it in blood-red then making the entire mask look piercing.
Samurai's monster mask
The monster mask worn by the Japanese samurai originated in the Edo period (1603-1867). At that time, the Japanese samurai class was similar to the European knights. They were powerful members of the local family and represented the respective clans' power and influence in the territory. In order to intimidate the samurai from the rival clan on the battlefield, and get the first effect, most of the samurai in the Edo period will wear masks made with the image of the monster, which will bring the enemy's psychological pressure as if seeing the death god.
