Horology By The Sea is thrilled to present an exceptional horological masterpiece: Serial #8/8 of the Armin Strom "Dual Time Resonance Manufacture Edition Rose Gold". Its distinctive, sweeping oval case creates a commanding presence on the wrist while providing an expansive stage for two completely independent timekeeping displays driven by a single synchronized engine.
Dial side presents a captivating display of open worked architecture and mechanical symmetry, featuring twin off-center hand-guilloché dials paired with polished steel sword-shaped hands. Each dial operates independently to allow simultaneous tracking of two distinct time zones—even accommodating fractional GMT offsets—complemented by dedicated 24-hour day/night indicators. Positioned prominently on the dial side, Armin Strom’s patented resonance clutch spring connects the two balance wheels, visually demonstrating their harmonic beats as they stabilize one another against wrist movements. Flanking the lower displays, dual cone-guided power reserve indicators offer a precise, tactile reading of the remaining energy for each independent gear train.
Powering this extraordinary timepiece is the manually wound in-house manufacture calibre ARF-17, an oval-shaped movement engineered with twin independent double-barrel movements working in tandem. The finishing elevates the technical architecture to true haute horlogerie, featuring exquisite handmade tremblage decoration applied to the balance bridges and a mirror-polished finish on the balance clutch spring executed to micro-tolerances. Every steel and brass component is meticulously bevelled, hand-polished, and decorated to ensure mechanical beauty.
The 18 karat rose gold case measures 59mm x 43.4mm x 15.9mm x 54.3mm lug-to-lug and is in excellent condition. Furnished on an OEM black alligator strap with 18 karat gold Armin Strom double folding buckle. Complete with Box and undated papers.
