Armin Strom Unveils the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Rose Gold — A Masterpiece of Mechanics and Elegance

JUNE 18 2025    |    Novelties

Independent Swiss watchmaker Armin Strom proudly presents the Gravity Equal Force Ultimate Sapphire Rose Gold, a timepiece that exemplifies the brand’s commitment to horological innovation, artisanal craftsmanship, and visual harmony.

Encased in 18K rose gold, this limited-edition watch features a sculptural movement architecture that plays with tone and texture. A brown guilloché mainplate, rose gold-colored bridges, and a floating off-centre sapphire dial create a refined and coherent composition. The watch is paired with a matte brown nubuck leather strap, adding an earthy elegance to the overall aesthetic.

At the heart of the timepiece is the Caliber ASB19, Armin Strom’s groundbreaking automatic movement. It incorporates a patented stop-work declutch mechanism and Geneva cross within the barrel, ensuring consistent torque delivery throughout its 72-hour power reserve. A micro-rotor enables efficient winding while preserving the symmetry and visibility of the movement — a hallmark of Armin Strom’s design philosophy.

Every component, visible or hidden, is hand-finished to haute horology standards. Techniques such as beveling, straight-graining, perlage, Geneva stripes, and black-polished screws are applied with precision and care. The mainplate features a “grain d’orge” guilloché pattern, crafted by master artisan Kari Voutilainen using a traditional hand-operated machine.

This exceptional timepiece is limited to just 25 pieces per year, making it a rare and radiant statement in the world of independent watchmaking. It is a testament to Armin Strom’s philosophy: Mechanics First. Always.

Armin Strom Unveils the Dual Time GMT Resonance Rose Gold

Armin Strom presents a refined and visually striking evolution of its celebrated Dual Time GMT Resonance collection with the debut of the Dual Time GMT Resonance Rose Gold. Rendered for the first time in a 39 mm 18K rose‑gold case, the timepiece introduces a warm and elegant reinterpretation of the brand’s technically driven design language. Limited to 50 pieces worldwide, this edition pairs the Maison’s signature resonance innovation with a rich new aesthetic personality, blending contemporary elegance with mechanical sophistication.

A New Expression of Design & Craftsmanship
The new Rose Gold edition distinguishes itself through its interplay of warm tones and finely executed textures. The 18K rose‑gold case forms a glowing frame around the black‑gold grenage dial, a surface enriched by depth, contrast, and granular refinement. The dial’s twin layouts—each dedicated to one time zone—are clearly defined by black azurage chapter rings, ensuring intuitive reading while maintaining the balanced symmetry that defines the Resonance line. The rose‑gold‑coloured, faceted and polished hands, together with matching applied indexes, elevate the aesthetic with a luxurious brightness. At six o’clock on each sub‑dial, polished and blackened steel sun-and-moon day/night discs add functional clarity and a poetic visual touch. Completing the ensemble is a matte anthracite alligator strap accented with grey stitching and secured with a matching 18K rose‑gold pin buckle, creating a cohesive, modern, and refined profile.

The Science of Movement: Calibre ARF22
At the heart of the watch lies Armin Strom’s hand‑wound, in‑house Calibre ARF22, a movement defined by the brand’s patented resonance clutch system. This mechanism couples two independent balance wheels and allows them to synchronise through resonance, a natural physical phenomenon that enhances chronometric stability. What might otherwise remain a theoretical curiosity is transformed into a practical complication: each regulating organ governs its own time display, enabling two entirely independent time zones. Each dial also features a corresponding day/night indicator, making the watch particularly intuitive for world travellers. Operating at 3.5 Hz (25,200 vph) and offering a 42‑hour power reserve, the ARF22 movement brings a dynamic, kinetic quality to the dial, where the twin oscillators interact in real time. The aesthetic presentation of the movement reflects haute horlogerie values, with meticulous hand‑polished bevels, black‑polished steel components, circular graining, perlage, and Côtes de Genève on full display through sapphire crystals on both sides. In keeping with Armin Strom tradition, each watch is assembled twice, ensuring uncompromising mechanical integrity and flawless finishing.

The new Dual Time GMT Resonance Rose Gold is offered in a strictly limited edition of 50 pieces

Moritz Grossmann Unveils TOURBILLON Titanium and TOURBILLON Tremblage: Tradition Meets Modernity

The tourbillon has long been regarded as one of the most fascinating complications in the history of watchmaking. Moritz Grossmann now reinterprets this horological icon with two extraordinary creations: TOURBILLON Titanium and TOURBILLON Tremblage. These timepieces embody the manufactory’s philosophy of blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics.

The TOURBILLON Titanium combines the technical sophistication of a flying three-minute tourbillon with the modern appeal of a titanium case. Its solid silver dial, adorned with a fine grain d’orge guilloche pattern, reflects the artistry of hand-guided engraving techniques. The result is a watch that is both lightweight and visually striking, offering a perfect balance of durability and elegance.

The TOURBILLON Tremblage, on the other hand, celebrates the beauty of historical handcraft. Its warm rose-toned dial is meticulously engraved using the traditional tremblage technique, creating a unique matte texture that softens light and enhances depth. Paired with a white gold case, this model exudes timeless sophistication while showcasing the manufactory’s dedication to artisanal excellence.

Both models are powered by the hand-wound calibre 103.0, featuring a flying three-minute tourbillon and patented innovations for precision timekeeping. Every component is finished by hand, from the engraved plates to the polished screws set in gold chatons, reflecting the highest standards of Glashütte watchmaking. These creations are more than timepieces—they are works of art that unite heritage and modernity in perfect harmony.

Chronoswiss Reimagines a Modern Classic with the New Lunar Chronograph Aurora

Chronoswiss introduces the Lunar Chronograph Aurora, a contemporary evolution of one of the brand’s most enduring icons. Since its debut in 1999, the Lunar Chronograph has symbolized Chronoswiss’s ability to blend classical Swiss watchmaking with an independent, expressive spirit. The new Aurora edition carries this legacy forward through a captivating reinterpretation rooted in light, color, and mechanical harmony.

At the heart of the transformation is its fully CVD‑coated dial, which shifts fluidly from deep green to vivid blue as light moves across its surface. Inspired by the ethereal glow of the aurora borealis, this chromatic effect gives the watch a quietly dramatic presence, making every glance feel like a changing atmospheric phenomenon. Balanced chronograph counters, a central analog date, and a poetic moon phase at 3 o’clock come together to form a composition that remains faithful to the model’s architectural heritage while embracing a distinctly modern personality.

The polished stainless‑steel case retains iconic design elements that have defined Chronoswiss for decades, including the onion crown and screwed lugs—details that reinforce the watch’s lineage and mechanical authenticity. Paired with a contemporary grey nubuck leather strap, the Lunar Chronograph Aurora combines classical provenance with renewed visual energy, offering collectors a sophisticated yet forward‑looking chronograph that bridges past and present with effortless elegance.

C BY ROMAIN GAUTHIER 39.5: BUILT FOR EVERYDAY ELEGANCE

Independent manufacture Romain Gauthier has unveiled its latest horological evolution with the release of the C by Romain Gauthier Titanium Edition 39.5. This new iteration introduces a highly anticipated, more compact 39.5 mm Grade 5 titanium case designed to sit effortlessly on a broader range of wrist sizes. Embodying the core philosophy of the collection, the timepiece is built for everyday wearability, blending high-end mechanics with a casual, modern design language that seamlessly integrates into daily life.

Enhancing this newfound versatility, the manufacture introduces its very first interchangeable rubber strap system alongside three expressive new colorways: vibrant blue, energetic orange, and subtle pink. These eye-catching color accents on the dial are matched with corresponding Super-LumiNova hues at night, offering a fresh, lifestyle-oriented aesthetic. The quick-release strap system allows wearers to effortlessly adapt the watch to any mood, outfit, or occasion, transitioning seamlessly between sporty casualness and discreet, refined elegance.

While the exterior boasts a contemporary, relaxed style, the heart of the watch remains deeply committed to haute horlogerie. The in-house manual-winding caliber is gloriously on show through the display back, showcasing finger bridges—historically typical of Romain Gauthier’s birthplace, the Vallée de Joux—reinterpreted with a modern "stepped" architecture. Each Grade 5 titanium bridge is meticulously finished by hand, featuring a highly original dimpled texture achieved through a special hand-engraving technique, set against a beautifully hand-frosted movement mainplate.

Technically astute, the timepiece is equipped with a clever stop-seconds mechanism that uses a snail cam—a nod to the brand’s acclaimed Logical One. Pulling out the crown stops the balance wheel, while pushing it back in prompts the snail cam to turn, delivering an active impulse to help the movement start beating again instantly. Offered as part of the brand's permanent, non-limited collection, the C by Romain Gauthier Titanium Edition 39.5 represents a masterful synthesis of superlative hand-finishing and modern, adaptable luxury.
