Swiss luxury sports watch manufacturer Alpina, is delighted to present you the new Startimer Pilot Big Date models.
Alpina has used its experience as official supplier of military and pilot watches to develop two new versions of its iconic Startimer Pilot line, a line that is widely appreciated by professional and private pilots alike.
The Startimer Pilot Chronograph Big Date
The new Startimer Pilot Chronograph Big Date features the perfectly readable aviation dial design for which the Alpina Startimer range is known. For this new version, with contrasting silvered chronograph counters, the inspiration has been drawn from Alpina pilot dials of the1970’s. The unmistakable red Alpina triangle signature is found in its traditional position at the base of the central chronograph hand and a military green technical leather strap, perfectly fitting the military spirit of the watch, completes the “ensemble”. The watch is also available on metal bracelet.
The 44mm diameter stainless steel case features a scratchproof sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating and is water-resistant up to 10 ATM /100M /330feet. The Startimer Pilot Chronograph Big Date encases the AL-372 high precision Swiss quartz chronograph movement, which drives every model in the range.
The Startimer Pilot Big Date
The two new watches of the range display a new dial design with a deep navy blue sunray finish, a contrasting silvered seconds counter and white dial indexes.
Like the Chronograph version, the Startimer Pilot Big Date features a 44mm, two parts stainless steel case, a scratchproof sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, a screw-in pilot crown and a small seconds display at 6 o’clock with a big date.
The Alpina Startimer Pilot Big Date encases the AL-280 high precision Swiss quartz movement. The watch is water resistant to 10 ATM /100M /330feet.
Alpina professional pilot watches, with their high performance features, are made for tough pilots; those landing on high altitude strips in the Swiss Alps or on short landing fields in the Canadian outback, and are, of course, perfect for all men (and women) who love flying and unlimited spaces and possibilities.
About Alpina
ALPINA, THE ORIGINAL SWISS SPORT WATCH
ALPINE SPORTS WATCH MANUFACTURING – SINCE 1883
Alpina, famous for its red triangle signature, is an independent, family-owned fine watchmaking manufacture based in Geneva, Switzerland. Founded in 1883, Alpina’s watchmaking history spans more than 132 years. A true pioneer of the Swiss watchmaking industry, Alpina has been the source of numerous innovations, patents and calibers. Alpina invented the concept of the sport watch, as we know it today, with the birth of its legendary Alpina 4 in 1938.
Faithful to its long tradition of creating mechanical calibers, Alpina manufactures four in-house movements: the AL-980 Tourbillon, the AL-718 World Timer, the AL-950 Automatic Regulator and the AL-710 Small Date Automatic. Alpina’s mission is to design and engineer luxury sport watches that operate with the greatest precision and reliability possible in the most demanding sporting environments, like the Alps.
