Alpina’s guiding principles remain the same today as in 1883: the quest for efficiency, relevance, and added value for the brand’s collectors – and titanium is one illustration of that quest. It’s highly relevant to the brand’s desire to provide outdoor timepieces that are robust whilst also remaining affordable, and the time has now come to unveil the first ever Alpina watch to be made entirely of titanium: the 39x40.5mm Alpiner Extreme Automatic featuring a titanium case and strap. This all-new edition of an Alpina outdoor watch is both lighter and stronger – a pioneering, landmark piece that offers a whole new horological experience and an improved look and feel.


BUILT FOR ADVENTURE 
AND EVERYDAY LIFE

Alpina has chosen finishes that accentuate the presence of titanium. The dial is embossed with the triangular motif symbolising the alpine summits from which the brand takes its name; here, it is done out in a contemporary light grey coupled with a satin finish often used by Alpina for its cases.


12 APPLIQUE INDEXES 
AL-525 MOVEMENT

The architectural depth of the dial is enhanced by twelve applique hour markers with black mother-of-pearl polished faceting and luminous coating: The layout, which also features three central hands powered by the Swiss Made AL-525 calibre; the latter boasts a 38-hour power reserve.


STAYING TRUE TO 
THE ALPINER EXTREME DNA

Alpina thinks long-term. Every one of the brand’s timepieces is designed to accompany its owner their whole life long – and indeed to be passed on to their descendants. All this makes titanium just the right material for an Alpina outdoor watch; it ticks all the boxes in terms of strength, finishings, affordability and more especially, genuine added value compared to steel, due to its relative lightness.

At first glance, the watch looks very similar to its steel forebears – but a closer look reveals the subtly different sheen of titanium. On the wrist, the reduced weight achieved by using titanium components really does deliver a whole new wearing experience – just the thing for owners seeking to scale new heights.
