Armin Strom Gumball 3000 Collection
Swiss watch manufacture Armin Strom introduces three bold watch designs to commemorate Gumball 3000 Car Rally.
Each year, supercars, superstars and super fans across the globe unite for Gumball 3000 –the annual supercar rally which sees 120 incredible cars drive a 3000 mile route around the world.
After this year’s event, which travels from Stockholm to Las Vegas in just seven days, Gumball 3000 entrants can reclaim “Gumball fever” by owning a 2015 Gumball 3000 commemorative wristwatch by ARMIN STROM.
ARMIN STROM director and chief horologist Claude Greisler collaborated with Gumball 3000 founder Maximillion Cooper, to interpret the boisterous rock ‘n’ roll atmosphere of the rally into powerful watch designs.
The audacious designs feature special engravings, appliques and colour treatments on the front and back of the open-worked dials and movements.
With models in 18k rose gold, black PVD-coated stainless steel and black PVD-coated titanium, the three Gumball 3000 series will be produced in numbered editions.
