Armin Strom Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple
Armin Strom, independent watchmaker from Biel/Bienne that this year celebrates its 15th anniversary, once again pushes the boundaries of haute horlogerie with the launch of its latest masterpiece, the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple timepiece. This remarkable creation, revealed as part of Armin Strom’s System 78 collection, marks a significant milestone in the brand’s journey of horological excellence. Combining masterful mechanics with a bold chromatic twist against a bright purple background, Armin Strom pulls out all the stops with this $28,900 watch.
Just 25 of the Armin Strom Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple watch will be made.
Created in a limited edition of just 25 pieces, the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple embodies Armin Strom’s commitment to pushing the limits of watchmaking artistry. In fact, in its short 15 years, the brand has created 17 unique movements, with the caliber ASB19 being one of them. This 202-part movement boasts a patented equal-force transmission integrated into the mainspring barrel, a power reserve indication, and a unique micro-rotor design.
An angled view of the Armin Strom Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple showcases the open-worked movement, the gray sapphire off-set dial and the extraordinary guilloche purple manipulate.
In addition to the incredible mechanical prowess of the watch, is the design and craftsmanship aspect. For the bold purple mainplate, the brand once again turns to master artisan Kari Voutilainen, who hand guilloche’s the barley grain motif that is his signature. The striking purple hue – a regal statement – is achieved through a sophisticated 3D PVD process and adds an electrifying touch to the ensemble, reflecting a wide spectrum of tones as it dances with the light.
The new Armin Strom Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple watch retails for $28,900.
A true testament to Armin Strom’s dedication to innovation, the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple boasts a small off-centered dial crafted from transparent gray sapphire crystal, a feature reserved exclusively for the Ultimate Sapphire Editions. Complementing this avant-garde design is a light gray nubuck leather strap adorned with purple stitching and keepers, adding a final flourish to this exceptional timepiece. Each watch is assembled, manufactured, and decorated entirely within the walls of the brand’s manufacturing site in Bienne, ensuring the highest level of quality and precision.

The Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Purple watch follows the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Green watch that the brand unveiled last year as a one-of-a-kind watch for Only Watch 2023 that was originally slated to take place in late 2023 but was rescheduled to this Friday, May 10, 2024. That was a one-of-a-kind watch. This version, with the magnificent purple main plate, is only being made in an edition of 25 pieces.
