To commemorate 15 years of pioneering innovation, Armin Strom presents the Dual-Time Resonance GMT, a limited-edition timepiece that revisits the brand’s groundbreaking resonance technology. Encased in a refined 39mm white gold frame, it showcases two independent time zones with the flexibility to accommodate fractional-hour GMT deviations. With its vibrant sky-blue grenage dials, day/night indicators, and masterfully hand-finished details, the watch offers a captivating kinetic display that sets it apart from anything else in the world of horology.
The resonance phenomenon – a delicate balancing act where two balance wheels housed in a single case synchronize via shared vibrations – has been a holy grail for watchmakers since 1655 due to its promise of superior timekeeping precision. Armin Strom has achieved a breakthrough with a patented clutch spring, a unique suspension system that maintains this synchronization even in the face of disruptive conditions, such as wrist movements, gravity, and temperature fluctuations. This innovation allows the balance wheels to consistently prevent the deviations in oscillation rate that would typically occur, achieving a level of resilience never before realized in a wristwatch.
Armin Strom's Dual-Time Resonance GMT is not only a feat of engineering but also a showcase of artistry. The twin dials feature a sky-blue grenage finish with black azurage chapter rings and polished baton indices, while the engraved day/night indicators add an element of refinement. For the first time, the twin balance bridge is crafted in polished steel, and the calibre is adorned with luxurious finishes, including hand-polished bevels, screws, and countersinks, along with Geneva stripes and perlage, demonstrating Armin Strom's unwavering commitment to traditional craftsmanship.
One of the standout features of the Dual-Time Resonance GMT is its innovative winding experience. Located at 6 o’clock, the three-dimensional ratchet wheel creates a mesmerizing dial-side animation that enhances the watch's dynamic character. This design offers not just functional excellence but also a visual spectacle that invites admiration with every glance, making each winding of the watch an engaging and interactive experience.
The new Dual-Time Resonance GMT honors Armin Strom's first resonance timepiece, released in 2016, while introducing a more compact, elegantly proportioned design. It pays homage to centuries of horological pursuit, from early experiments in the 17th century to its modern execution, capturing the elusive dream of achieving chronometric consistency in a wristwatch.
With just 25 pieces available, the Dual-Time Resonance GMT is a rare masterpiece that blends historical significance with cutting-edge technology. Offered with a ten-year warranty and two luxurious strap options, this timepiece is a coveted addition for any collector who values the finest in watchmaking artistry and innovation. A true celebration of Armin Strom's legacy, it stands as a testament to their relentless pursuit of precision and craftsmanship.
