Alpina

Alpina is a true workhorse of a brand that has stayed in the game through thick and thin. Since 1883, they’ve taken a conscious, innovative and quality-based approach toward production, sometimes to a fault. 1938’s Alpina 4–which joined anti-magnetic and anti-shock properties with water resistance and stainless-steel construction, is considered by many to be the father of the modern-day sports watch. Recent endeavours include the acclaimed and affordable Horological Smartwatch series as well as the painstakingly reliable AL-760 Automatic Flyback Chronograph, which utilises a patented flyback mechanism invented in-house. Alpina craft some of the finest mid-tier watches money can buy.
