Description:
The Swiss watchmaker Alpina Geneve is pleased to announce the launch of its new Pilot Startimer; a very attractive range of contemporary watches, inspired by the original design of the 1920 Alpina and 1930. At that time, Alpina Watch International watch factory was a special, official supplier of watches for pilots of the Air Force.
These pioneers of aviation were indeed rigorous requirements: their instruments needed to be extremely accurate and to ensure optimum impact strength. Alpina watches for pilots were often equipped with antimagnetic case and feature a contrasting dial with luminous numbers and luminous hands oversized for greater readability.
Today, nearly a century later and after having revisited its rich aviation heritage, Alpina presents the new collection Startimer Pilot, available in four stunning models. First, the basic automatic version (size AL-525), with second hand and date window.
Then the one provided with the automatic caliber AL-710, developed and produced in-house, with minutes and hours and dial the date offset. Then the iconic Startimer Pilot Regulator that, beating the rhythm of the house caliber AL-950, successfully combines modern design history and configuration of a dial regulator. And finally, to perfect this new line, the automatic chronograph (caliber AL-860) is perfectly balanced, all strength and elegance.
The simplicity of design common to these four timepiece clearly inspired by the past of the brand: a generous 44 mm case in stainless steel, satin-reflective, matte black dial with numbers oversized luminescent white, a sapphire anti-reflective and iconic second hand Alpina whose base is a red triangle. For user comfort, a solution of the original fitting was found for the leather strap: it closes on top of the wrist, not the bottom, reminiscent of old leather straps. A new metal bracelet, which can be adapted to all versions, is
also available.
To support the launch of this new collection, Alpina Geneva joined, under a three-year contract, two-tier partnerships, Cessna Aviation and PrivatAir. During this time, Alpina Geneva, Cessna Aviation and PrivatAir closely will promote their products and services, which have high quality and excellence for common values, by cross-marketing activities in Europe and North America.
Moreover, production Alpina watches Pilot Startimer will be limited to 8,888 pieces, presented in a deluxe dedicated containing the model of a Cessna Citation Mustang colors of PrivatAir.
