    The unwavering strength of stainless steel.

    At Astell&Kern, we study countless materials to remain faithful to our design philosophy: Deliver the unique beauty and pure essence of the raw material intact without needless processing.

    "A strong, non-corrosive metal that does not easily bend or damage."

    "A metal that can restore damage through polishing."

    This type of metal is already widely used on high-end timepieces. Unlike the previous iterations that employed duralumin, the Astell&Kern AK240SS is constructed with stainless steel to take full advantage of its inherent benefits. Due to the extremely difficult processing techniques and high costs when compared to aluminum, stainless steel is generally reserved for high-end timepieces. We at Astell&Kern have created the most special version of the AK240SS to date using stainless steel to bring you only the best.
