ALPINA WATCHES

ALPINER AUTOMATIC 4 GLACIER BLUE REF. AL-525NS5AQ6

Alpina enlarges its top-of-the-range Collection with a new Automatic line and "Business Timer" GMT model. The Alpiner 4 Collection integrates the concept of "4" that served as a base in 1938, when Alpina invented the concept of the Swiss Sports watch.



The concept of 4

More than any other watchmaker, Alpina was responsible for the concept of the modern Swiss sports watch, as it is known today. After several patents to ensure water-resistance and following the development of the famous Alpina "Block Uhr" in 1933, in 1938 Alpina presents the "Alpina 4": the first modern Swiss sports watch. The concept behind the "Alpina 4" was to combine the 4 essential features that defined a sports watch, in one single timepiece:

1. Anti-magnetic, 2. Anti-shock, 3. Water-resistant and 4. Stainless

Such had to be a sports watch, in the vision of the Alpina founder Gottlieb Hauser, to be able to tackle the entire vertical Alpine sports environment, from mountain climbing to alpine lake diving. In 2014, Alpina revived the Alpina "4" concept with its new "Alpiner 4" collection, dedicated to the Alpine sports universe.



The Alpiner 4 Automatic

Encasing Alpina's AL-525 Automatic movement, the Alpiner 4 Automatic is a luxury sports watch offering unmatched performance and robustness due to its Alpina 4 sports features. The simplicity and effectiveness of the dial design underline the professional nature of this watch, while the 60min turning bezel allows for key sports time measurement functions. With the new Alpiner 4 Automatic, Alpina also re-introduces its signature "Glacier Blue" colored dial, the distinctive blue of the Geneva manufacture. A genuine leather strap with red stitching completes the design concept of this new 44mm watch line. The line is composed of three models with three different dial colors: glacier blue, black and silvered.

Alpina find ich toll, die ganzen neuen Modelle finde ich sehr gelungen, diese hier auch ! Es gibt noch ein ähnliches Modell, die GMT4, die habe ich auch schon mal ins Auge gefasst.
Preis / Leistung ist hier wirklich toll.
Was weiss eigentlich Wiki zu Alpina ?
"Ende Mai 2016 kauft der japanische Uhrenkonzern Citizen die Schweizer Frédérique-Constant-Gruppe mit den Marken Alpina und Ateliers de Monaco." (Quelle: Wikipedia)

Traurig ist nur zu sehen, was passiert, wenn sich jemand wieder von seiner Alpina trennen möchte. Gebraucht will die kaum einer mehr kaufen, nach langer Wartezeit wird die Uhr dann über den Preis weggehauen. Schade, aber das ist oft das Schicksal wenig bekannter Marken.
