Armin Strom Mirrored Force Resonance Special edition Guilloche Dial

The Resonance

The Armin Strom Resonance collection builds upon the legacy left behind by Mr Strom. A legacy of skeletonising dials is further carried by modern mechanical innovations. In physics, Resonance is defined as a phenomenon when the vibrations or frequencies generated by two bodies match. In watchmaking, this phenomenon is rarely used only by master watchmakers. The effect of resonance offers greater accuracy, and linear power delivery, and reduces the effects of external factors leading to inaccuracy. As per the laws of physics, Resonance is achieved via two independent bodies. In watchmaking, these two bodies are two independent movements each equipped with its own mainsprings, gear trains, and regulators. These two independent movements are either connected by a balance cock or a bridge that helps these two movements achieve resonance. In the case of Armin Strom, this connection is achieved with a patented Resonance Clutch Spring. Each and every deviation in one movement is then corrected by another. Armin Strom perfected this phenomenon quite efficiently and became one of the rarest watchmakers to achieve this goal. With timepieces such as the Resonance Zeitgeist, Pure Resonance, and Mirrored Force Resonance, Armin Strom offers accuracy without compromising on the aesthetic value.

Mirrored Force Resonance

Made with stainless steel or a rose gold case, the Armin Strom Mirrored Force Resonance features the ARF15 movement. Apart from the case, the Mirrored Force Resonance is also equipped with a guilloche dial and is even offered in a sandblasted version. The pusher above the crown is to adjust the resonance mechanism. Whereas, the two triple hand seconds dial displays seconds from the two independent movements.

Zeitgeist & Pure Resonance

To celebrate the 5 year anniversary of Armin Strom's revival, the brand launched the Resonance Zeitgeist. Zeitgeist is a unique timepiece with a platinum case and a transparent skeleton dial. Taking most of its inspiration from the Mirrored Force Resonance, the Resonance Zeitgeist features two triple-hand seconds sub-dial.Whereas, Pure Resonance is not equipped with a skeleton dial but still shows the synchronised ballet of the two balance springs trying to achieve accurate resonance. Pure Resonance is available in different dial colours such as Salmon, Sea Green, Sky Blue, Blue, and Black Gold.
