Alpina extends its Alpiner 4 collection with an Automatic line and Business Timer GMT Model.
The famous Swiss watchmaker, which focuses on production of exceptional sports watches, is often mentioned as the brand that actually invented the concept of the Swiss Sports watch. Its Alpiner 4 collection, on the other hand, revolves around the concept that combines 4 essential features of a sports watch, in a single timepiece. This means that each watch from the Alpiner series is made of stainless steel, and designed to withstand powerful anti-magnetic fields, shocks, and water immersion.
This fall, Alpina extends its luxury sports collection with two interesting additions. The first is the Alpiner 4 Automatic, a model powered by Alpina's AL-525 automatic movement, which is based on Swiss ETA 2824-2 automatic. The reliable AL-525 is already used for some of Alpina's most demanding collections, such as the Extreme Diver, Extreme 40, and the 12 Hours of Sebring Series.
