Alpina Genève launch its new Alpina Startimer Classic Wrist Watch Collection

The new Alpina Startimer Classic watch collection  in two different calibers.

Swiss Watch manufacturer Alpina Genève is excited to launch its new Alpina Startimer Classic Collection; an attractive range of contemporary timepieces, inspired by original Alpina Pilot watch designs from the 1920’s and 30’s. The functional design of the Alpina Startimer Pilot was successfully converted in to a more traditional, slightly less sporty and highly wearable collection, while maintaining the vintage feel that is distinctive for the entire Alpina Startimer classic watch range.

During the 1920’s and 30’s, Alpina Watch International was known as a specialized manufacturer and official supplier of military watches, utilized by pilots. These early aviation pioneers had strict requirements: instruments had to be extremely precise and provide ultimate shock resistance. Today, Alpina takes these historical designs as a basis for a new collection of functional and contemporary timepieces, all equipped with a finely decorated silvered dial.

The make up of the Alpina Startimer Classic watch collection

The Alpina Startimer Classic Collection is available with two different calibers; a three-hand automatic version with date (cal AL-525) in a stainless steel case and available with either blackened steel indexes or rose-gold plated indexes. Second version is the Chrono-Automatic (cal AL-860) with two chrono-counters, in a stainless steel case and available with either blackened steel indexes or rose-gold plated indexes. In addition, the Chrono-Automatic comes in a special vintage variation with a telemeter indicator on the dial.

The Alpina Startimer Classic Collection is reminiscent of Alpina’s fascinating history and dedication to reliability and reliance. Even a century later, Alpina continues to reshape innovation while retaining the brand’s core values: Bold and clean, seamless designs connecting past, present and future.
