Limited to just 20 pieces, the bold new timepiece merges stealth aesthetics with horological innovation.

Armin Strom, the Swiss independent watchmaker known for its mechanical ingenuity and contemporary design language, introduces a daring evolution of its revolutionary Orbit collection: the Orbit Purple. Defined by its radiant midnight purple fumé dial and housed within a black DLC-coated case, the Orbit Purple is as technically original as it is visually commanding.

At the heart of this new release lies a novel philosophy: complication with intent. The Orbit collection is renowned for rethinking the traditional date complication by integrating the world’s first on-demand pointer-date—ingeniously located on the bezel. This mechanism only displays the date when engaged, then resets discreetly. Unlike standard date displays that advance automatically and occupy space constantly, Armin Strom’s design puts control back in the wearer’s hands. It’s an invitation to be more present—with time, and with life.

While the complication exudes restraint, the dial is anything but subdued. The purple fumé finish captures attention instantly, fading from a luminous, almost electric center into a moody midnight along the edges. This chromatic journey draws the eye inward, while the matching purple pointer hand and date numerals on the ceramic bezel extend the visual harmony. The result is a dial that not only tells time—it captivates it.

A 43.4mm black DLC-coated stainless steel case wraps the vibrant dial in a stealthy shell, offering both rugged durability and modern sophistication. Paired with a textured black textile strap, the watch radiates a sleek, high-contrast look that remains unmistakably Armin Strom. The reverse side reveals the manually wound movement through an open caseback—complete with meticulous hand-finishing that reflects the maison’s respect for traditional Swiss craftsmanship.

Like every Armin Strom creation, the Orbit Purple is assembled and decorated by hand, a nod to the brand’s commitment to the art of watchmaking. From hand-polished bevels to mirror-polished screws, the watch is a tactile reminder that innovation need not come at the expense of heritage.

With just 20 pieces produced worldwide, the Orbit Purple isn’t just a limited edition—it’s a statement. Bold yet considered. Functional yet avant-garde. It’s a watch designed not to follow time, but to shape how we interact with it.

Because in a world that often demands discretion, Armin Strom reminds us that presence can still be powerful.
