The Armin Strom Tribute 1 Rose Gold watch is created in a limited edition of just 100 pieces.
The important thing to note hers is that all of the components of this timepiece were manufactured in house at Armin Strom and each was individually hand finished – an art and skill that this brand long ago mastered. In fact, the three-quarter bridge (visible on the case back) is adorned with the Cotes de Geneve decoration and polished at a 60-degree angle. Other finishes include a circular grained pattern on the main plate and anglage and graining on the balance bridge.
The 135-part movement of the The Armin Strom Tribute 1 Rose Gold watch was created entirely in house.
The watch is powered by the 135-part Armin Strom Manufacture Caliber AMW21 hand-wound movement with flat hairspring and a variable inertia balance wheel. The movement offers a highly impressive 100 hours of power reserve. That feat is even engraved on the open-worked motor barrel. For added ergonomic comfort, the crown is at 2:00 instead of 3:00. The case back boasts a transparent sapphire crystal for viewing of the finely finished parts. This is the watch that will definitely turn heads. It retails for $23,900.
