Tribute 1 is the simplest, smallest and most affordable version of the Armin Strom collection – an aspect initially reinforced by a steel case, which the brand has now overturned with this Rose Gold Edition. By choosing the warm tone of 5N gold, Armin Strom raises this model to a level that confirms the merits it displayed right from the start. The purity, the off-centered display and the finishing of this timepiece endow it with a natural elegance that deserved a precious interpretation. Especially as this treatment is not confined to the case, since Tribute 1 highlights its barrel appearing directly on the dial. Its assertive presence is an allusion to Armin Strom’s movement construction philosophy, based on skeletonization and organs that are thus generally entirely visible. This gleaming component is further accentuated by the barrel bridge holding it in place. Skeletonized, satin-brushed, chamfered and also made of gold, it adds to the contrasting colors and textures – since the dial on which it is placed is matt, finely grained and anthracite-finished.
