Alpiner 4 Automatic Watch AL-525NS4AQ6B

The Watch

Alpina is a Swiss watchmaking brand committed to purely innovative manufacturing standards. This Geneva manufacture offers sporty yet elegant creations built to strict quality benchmarks. From the Alpiner 4 Automatic collection, it presents this AL-525NS4AQ6B watch. It features a round 316L stainless steel case in a silver tone with a polished and brushed finish that accentuates its appeal. It measures 40 mm in diameter and 12.50 mm thick. It is topped by a rotating fluted bezel with minute graduations, surrounding a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment that shields the dial from shocks and scratches. A screwed crown at 3 o'clock lets you set the hours, minutes, and date. This timepiece features a screwed caseback ensuring water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

This round dial in blue features a striped sunray finish that underscores the watch's refined design. Its edge is lined with a white-graduated minute track. Inside, white arrow-tipped indexes mark the hours, swept by two central alpha hands displaying hours and minutes. A slender seconds hand joins them for the seconds. All time indicators are coated with Super-LumiNova for excellent legibility even in low light. A date window with a black background sits at 3 o'clock. The brand signs its creation below 12 o'clock with its name.

The Movement

Powering this model is the automatic AL-525 movement based on SW200, oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour to deliver accurate hours, minutes, seconds, and date. Antimagnetic, it features 26 jewels and offers a power reserve of 38 hours.

The Bracelet

Robust and comfortable, this bracelet measuring 18 cm in length is crafted in 316L stainless steel. It features three rows of links with a brushed and polished finish. It is fitted with a deployant clasp for a secure fit that is easy to put on and take off. The lug width is 20 mm.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, equivalent to 100 meters, this is a genuinely water-resistant watch. Suitable for bathing, showering, and lap swimming - but not for diving (recreational or professional) or high-pressure washers - it will keep up with most of your water adventures. One important note: avoid operating the crown and pushers while underwater to preserve the water resistance and integrity of the movement.
