Perpetual Moon 41.5 Red Gold – Cliff Grey Edition

Chronoswiss Ignites Passion with the Revolutionary Delphis Firestarter, marking the introduction of a never seen before case.

Chronoswiss, the trailblazing watchmaker from Lucerne, proudly unveils the revolutionary Delphis Firestarter, a timepiece that sets a new benchmark for horological innovation and artistry. Limited to just 50 pieces, this extraordinary creation is housed in a world novelty: A Titanium Core Nano Shell case. What you see is not a coating, it is the perfect symbiosis of a high-performance composite with a Grade 5 titanium core on a molecular level. Through an advanced bonding process, the titanium core permanently merges with a 0.4mm ultra- lightweight yet resilient composite shell in firey red. Within this complicated process, the case is carved out of a solid block of the high-end composite. The world’s first Titanium Core Nano Shell case creates an eye-catching aesthetic, setting a new standard in modern watch case engineering.

The development of their manufacture movement started in 2017 and is now revealed in 2024, celebrating their 50 years of Astronomical Complications anniversary.

The Armin Strom One Week Titanium Skeleton, an openworked masterpiece now fully skeletonized to reveal the intricate heart of its mechanics, combines striking design with precision engineering. Encased in lightweight titanium grade 5, it balances strength with comfort, providing a feeling of lightness that makes it easy to wear all week long.

The Armin Strom One Week Titanium Skeleton is a showcase of skeletonization, a technique that is rooted in Mr. Armin Strom’s philosophy and heritage. He sought to enhance depth and three-dimensionality while avoiding see-through to maintain elegance.

The 2023 One Week was already openworked by nature, but this version goes even further, removing more material to highlight the movement’s complexity. Few watches combine openworking and skeletonization at this level. The small seconds dial is skeletonized, revealing the power reserve level and the escapement wheel for a 3D mechanical animation. The mainplate and the barrels are also skeletonized enhancing aesthetics. Thanks to this skeletonization, the power reserve indicator is highlighted as well as the cone mechanism, reminiscent of ancient pocket watches. A major highlight is the case back, offering a mesmerizing view of the entire mechanism.

With a 7-day power reserve, this watch keeps time accurate for an entire week without needing winding. The hand-finished details reflect the level of craftsmanship behind its design. Limited to 100 pieces, the One Week Titanium Skeleton offers a refined, functional timepiece that blends robustness and comfort in a minimalist package.
 

Chronoswiss is excited to announce the release of the Strike Two Series with the cutting-edge “H2O” and “Golden Gear” models. This exclusive collection, each limited to just 100 pieces, represents a new chapter of innovation in the Chronoswiss watchmaking story, written in the heart of Lucerne.
Echoing the pioneering spirit of the '90s Chronoswiss Tora, the Strike Two series is an homage to the Chronoswiss heritage with the unique horizontal Regulator Setup. The Strike Two is a gateway to the future of timekeeping in Lucerne, embracing the past while forging ahead with groundbreaking design. The distinctive and name giving twin bridges and their exquisite finish showcase a relentless pursuit of perfection. The visible gearwork underneath the hour ring as well as the hand-guilloched small second dial reveal the precision of the artisan handcraft, while the revamped crown design adds a fresh twist to the iconic Chronoswiss style.

Biel/Bienne, Switzerland, 26 June 2024: Following the inaugural redesigned One Week First Edition that made its debut in 2023, Armin Strom unveils a new version of the successor to its first-ever manufacture movement with the One Week Manufacture Edition. The highly architectural openworked movement, housed in a sleek and sporty steel case with an integrated bracelet, is now presented in a range of grey and anthracite hues. Limited to 100 pieces, the One Week Manufacture Edition foregoes colour to bring out the beauty of its uniquely constructed manual calibre.

15 years ago, independent watchmaking brand Armin Strom took a major leap that would forever change its trajectory. Realising that the path to true independence lies in mastering every step of the process, it established its very own manufacture in Biel. A year later, the first timepiece produced by its vertically integrated manufacture was unveiled: the One Week. Entirely developed and manufactured in-house and designed with symmetrical harmony in mind, it stood out thanks to its unique movement architecture featuring two barrels that together provide a seven-day power reserve. This milestone marked the beginning of many new calibres and innovations by the Armin Strom manufacture, showcasing their dedication to the science of movement and garnering the admiration and respect of even the most discerning and seasoned collectors.

The new One Week Manufacture Edition completely reimagines this milestone calibre in line with the brand’s recent bolder, more three-dimensional approach to calibre design, all in a sleek and serene execution that further highlights its ingenuity and uniqueness. The mainplate, bridges and parts, visible on the dial thanks to the openworked movement design, are anthracite PVD coated for a striking look.

As Armin Strom founder Serge Michel notes: “Collectors who missed the opportunity to get a first edition of the redesigned One Week will now have another chance. The Manufacture Edition of the new One Week will be limited to 100 pieces.”

Sporty yet classy, this model exudes calmness and serenity with its anthracite tones and the symmetrical harmony of its in-house movement.
