Armin Strom Mirrored Force Resonance Water in Stainless Steel

Marina Milojević | 05.03.17 | 09:19 PM

After the great success of the rose gold premier model, which made its debut at the last year’s London’s SalonQP, the house of Armin Strom introduces the Mirrored Force Resonance in stainless steel. The new watch, symbolizing the element of water, is paired with an elegant white dial and a blue strap. Same as the original model, the Mirrored Force Resonance in Stainless Steel is a resonating dual regulator developed for maximum precision. Its silvery-white dial is partially openworked to reveal a complete dual regulator mechanism.

The model, which is known as the most complicated timepiece ever produced by Armin Strom, relies on the concept of resonance, a phenomenon in which two oscillating bodies in close proximity influence each other until they eventually synchronize. It features two balance wheels, which are also placed very close to each other, so that the rate of the one affects the other one. The result, a resonating dual regulator, greatly improves the accuracy of the watch and optimizes its energy consumption. In a nutshell, it helps keep a watch accurate over longer periods of time. In addition, since two balance wheels reciprocally influence each other, the effect of resonance also makes the movement more resilient to errors resulting from shocks.

The effect is visible on the dial where two connected oscillators make their revolutions in opposite directions, one rotating clockwise and the other counterclockwise. In about 10 minutes after winding, the balances will become synchronous. A dedicated pusher at 2 o’clock resets the twin seconds’ displays to zero, simultaneously resetting the twin balance wheels.

The limited edition Armin Strom Mirrored Force Resonance Water is powered by the manually-wound calibre ARF15. The movement, which is built from 226 components and 43 jewels, beats at a frequency of 25,200 vibrations per hour. The off-center time indications are shown on a separate sub-dial that occupies the right portion of the dial.

The stainless steel case, complete with a sapphire crystal and case back with antireflective treatment, measures 43.40mm in diameter and 13.00 mm in height. The case is water resistant to 50 meters, and mounted on a genuine blue alligator horn-back strap and stainless steel ardillon buckle. The watch is delivered with an additional blue rubber strap. A double-folding clasp in stainless steel is available as an option.

Armin Strom Mirrored Force Resonance Water, reference number ST16-RW.05, is limited to 50 pieces. The watch retails at CHF 54’000. For more information, please visit Armin Strom.
