A year after pioneering independent watchmaker Armin Strom launched a redesigned, sleeker Mirrored Force Resonance, the Swiss-based manufacturer launches a new version, the Mirrored Force Resonance Manufacture Edition Blue, sporting a specially textured blue dial and matching Alcantara strap.

The newest iteration of the watch, first introduced by Armin Strom in 2016, is still one of the few serialized watch designs boasting a resonance-based regulating system. The newest series is a limited edition of fifty pieces with new blue accents that serve to highlight the dial’s three-dimensional display.

The new dark blue off-center dial matches the twin resonance second counters, both of which are also finished in the same blue tone and painted with white numerals. The open-worked second's dials (with their triple-arm hands) can be reset to zero by the pusher at 2 o’clock.

These newly colorful elements, unusual enough on any dial, share the space with another component not seen on any other resonance-based construction: a one-piece steel Resonance Clutch Spring.

Armon Strom’s signature creation essentially transfers energy between both hairsprings and quickly brings the balance wheels into resonance.

This new watch maintains the design’s 43mm by 11.55 steel case and raised sapphire crystal. On the back, Armin Strom has engraved — in bas-relief — the main plate with technical details and characteristics of the Mirrored Force Resonance mechanism.
