ASPEN ONE is the first luxury timepiece collection introduced by Aspen Jewelry and
Watches. ASPEN ONE is a Swiss-made timepiece, and is a tribute to Aspen and its crown
jewel, Aspen Mountain.
The collection has a variety of colors that can be chosen for the dial as well as the vessel. The
whole ASPEN ONE collection has a total limitation in production of 3267 pieces.
Unique Features of Aspen One
All models of ASPEN ONE boast unique elements that are specific to Aspen. A specially
designed compass shows you where you are on top of Aspen Mountain. The number four on
the dial is orange, which is the time to change your ski strap to your après-ski strap (done in a
few seconds with a technique similar to removing a ski from a boot). In keeping with the
tradition of the Ute Indians of Aspen, this color symbolizes prosperity. Orange is also the
color of mountain security. With your watch comes a pair of beautiful deerskin gloves,
specially made for ASPEN ONE. One of the gloves has a cut-away, so you can always see
your ASPEN ONE.
Aspen Mountain is the bold mountain commonly referred to as Ajax. The elevation of 3,276
feet from the base of the mountain to its peak is the basis for ASPEN ONE’s limited edition.
By buying this watch, you buy one virtual foot of this glorious mountain. This fact will be
shown in a delicate way on the mountain. In a beautiful location named the Black Diamond, a
special monument has been constructed. Three rock formations will feature the names of all
watch buyers and their unique virtual elevation number.
