Horological Meandering - Looking at Armin Strom. I've been following the brand for a couple of years and have to say that I am impressed with the line. In house movement. Unique design. Excellent finishing and decorative work.

Looking at Armin Strom. I've been following the brand for a couple of years and have to say that I am impressed with the line. In house movement. Unique design. Excellent finishing and decorative work.

I particularly like the rose gold pieces.

This piece is a hallmark piece for the brand as it highlights what Armin Strom is known for: skeleton pieces and excellent finishing/decoration. This piece shows both.

Their less involved models are fun as well

Don't have a picture of their tourbillons but I am partial to the "Fire".

I do know that they are working on some really special projects that are not quite ready for prime time. They will bring an interest to a lot of watch nerds.

I do believe that this is a brand to watch.

Cheers

I follow you... they are interesting design, in house and unique. I had one on my wrist a few times after borrowing from a friend, very nice on the wrist and finishing is really high. I have them on my list to visit next time I am around Biel. Cheers Andr...

I too hope to someday visit there manufacture. I agree that their pieces are ones to appreciate in construction, design and completion. [nt]

Do you think that their design will last?

I am tempted as well and certainly not watches you see every day. But do you think that the contemporary design with the open-worked and off-centered dial as key element will last? Best regards, kolosstt

Although one can never be sure I do think that it can last. AP has had the new Milinary line for at least 10 yrs. Breguet has had off centered dials and they lasted a while.

I am partial to the skeletonized versions where the dial is not off center.
