Swiss-German pioneering independent watchmaker Armin Strom launches the Tribute 1 Rose Gold Edition, the first gold-cased version of its Tribute 1 dress watch. 

The new Armin Strom Tribute 1 Rose Gold Edition.

The new edition of the 38mm watch, with its off-center dial and unusual exposed motor barrel and bridge, nicely pairs the warm rose gold hue of its case, hands, the even-numbered markers and bridge with the dial’s textured anthracite tones.

Previously offered in steel, the Tribute 1 announces one of its primary technical attributes on its hand-polished skeletonized open-worked motor barrel on which the words “100 HOURS OF POWER RESERVE” are engraved. Armin Strom’s innovative motor barrel reaches its impressive power reserve thanks to its arbor that turns around the mainspring within the barrel itself, optimizing its efficiency.

Armin Strom devotes equal attention to the finish of its technically advanced, hand-wound caliber AMW 21.

Seen through the watch’s sapphire caseback is the movement’s eye-catching three-quarter bridge adorned with Côtes de Genève decoration. Armin Strom artisan’s hand-finish a circular grained pattern on the main plate, while finishing the balance bridge with side graining, anglage, sand blasting and straight graining. Finally, hand-bevelled escapement and the escape bridge edges add to the watch’s sense of luxury.

Limited to 100 pieces, the new Armin Strom Tribute 1 Rose Gold Edition is sold with a black alligator strap. Price: $23,900.
