Watch brand Armin Strom released an exclusive blue edition of its Mirrored Force Resonance model with an off-center dial design. The timepiece was initially unveiled in June 2022, featuring the first edition timepiece in a much lighter build than its 2016 version.
This Mirrored Force Resonance model’s signature off-center dial design comes with a dark blue grenage dial. The making process of the grenage involves manually treating and brushing with a mix of ingredients like powder, salt, and metals. The dial is designed with a circular satin-brushed chapter ring with two interconnected resonant regulating organics that comes with a flyback function. It also consists of a 43mm case size, stainless steel frame, to steel hands. The strap matches dark blue Alcantara, finished with white stitched details and a stainless steel buckle. There are only 50 pieces available for purchase, and the timepiece is priced at $63,000 in CHF.
