My first encounter with Armin Strom's work was with a skeletonized OMEGA Speedmaster watch. That's right, Armin Strom has worked for 10 years on various skeletonized OMEGA timepieces. However, in the 40 years being active as a watchmaker and engraver, he also started working on his own timepieces since 1984. During the years, his business - both for other companies and his own - grew and in 2009 the Armin Strom AG moved to a large production facility in Biel. This was also the year that Armin Strom introduced their first in-house developed and manufactured movement, the ARM09. During the Baselworld 2013 exhibition we paid a visit to the Armin Strom booth and had some time to finally see some of their watches in the flesh and take some photos.
