Some watchmakers are proud of their history. We prefer making it.

“Clearly inspired by classic watchmaking but executed in a modern way.” “I had a great time wearing the Tribute² Aurum Edition…Its modest 38mm case size makes it a handsome and very wearable watch that fit my wrist nicely. The level of detail is truly remarkable. I kept coming back to it for quick peeks during the day. Additionally, I took out a loupe multiple times to admire the manual finishing in all its glory. The standout feature is the hand-finished mainplate, complete with tremblage finishing. Tremblage is a decorative, engraved manual finish that requires a significant amount of time. The finish is delicately hammered onto the mainplate, giving it a finely textured surface and adding great depth and detail to the Tribute² Aurum. Additionally, it contrasts beautifully with the larger elements, which are also finished beautifully… The watch is super comfortable, and its remarkably slim 9mm profile makes it a wonderful daily companion. The manual-winding movement comprises 137 parts, operates at 25,200 vibrations per hour, and offers a generous 100-hour power reserve. And when you need to wind the watch, the crown offers a great winding experience... It is no secret that we love Armin Strom at Fratello. Execution is a decisive factor in turning a simple concept into an awe-inspiring one. Armin Strom has mastered that art perfectly with its Tribute² series.” - Jorg Wellelink, Fratellowatches.com, 15/01/2026 Limited to just 10 examples.

NEW RELEASE: The Tribute² Aurum A modern homage to traditional hand-finishing techniques performed at the very highest level, the Tribute² ‘Aurum’ invites a deep appreciation of contrast, craft, and dimensionality. The Aurum’s mainplate is textured by hand using the traditional Tremblage technique, producing a mesmerizing effect as countless indentations catch and reflect light in different directions. Achieving an even, consistent pattern across the entire surface of the mainplate demands a steady hand, patience, and considerable experience from a master artisan. An intentional showcase of our commitment to extraordinary hand-finishing, this pursuit is reflected in every aspect of the 38mm Aurum. The motor barrel is skeletonized with hand-bevelled, hand-polished spokes and is secured by a steel finger bridge polished at a challenging 60-degree angle. Below it, the ratchet bridge is finished with hand-polished bevels. The Aurum’s off-center fumé grey dial is framed by a hand-polished rehaut, adding further visual depth. Through the open case back, a three-quarter bridge decorated with Geneva stripes and circular graining is revealed, alongside a hand-polished balance bridge. A hand-bevelled, three-dimensional escapement wheel bridge with a polished sink further complements the beauty of our AMW21 movement. Developed and manufactured entirely in-house, the Aurum delivers an impressive 100 hours of power reserve in a manually wound movement measuring just 4.2mm in height. This is made possible through meticulous space conservation enabled by the movement’s innovative motor barrel, within which an arbor delivers energy to the gear train. Of course, each Tribute² Aurum is assembled twice: a hallmark of our commitment to mechanical precision, operational reliability, and aesthetic integrity. Limited to just 10 examples.
