Alpiner Extreme Regulator Automatic Watch AL-650NDG4AE6B

The Watch

Founded in 1883 and renowned for its distinctive red triangle, Alpina is a Geneva-based watchmaker with over 135 years of history. The house invented the concept of the Swiss sports watch as we know it today with the creation of its legendary Alpina 4 in 1938. Today, it invites you to add an original and sophisticated touch to your wrist with this AL-650NDG4AE6B watch offered in a limited edition. Through this distinctively designed piece, the brand introduces you to the Alpiner Extreme Regulator Automatic collection. It features a cushion case in 316L stainless steel measuring 41 mm in width, 12.50 mm in length, and 12 mm in thickness, designed to accompany you comfortably through every moment of the day. To enhance its masculine and compelling look, it boasts a polished and brushed grey tone and is adorned with six screws on its surface. The dial is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal that guards it against daily hazards while offering superior readability. The right side of the case features a screw-down crown for setting the various hands. The model's transparent screw-down case back ensures excellent water resistance of 20 ATM.

The Dial

The round dial of this watch carries lines that are as elegant as they are practical. Its stunning triangular-pattern finish hosts time markers in a simple yet charming style that is sure to turn heads. Showcasing a beautiful blue dial, it features an analog display with three distinctive hands. The minutes are read via a central alpha hand pointing to a railway track running along the circumference. This track surrounds baton indexes marking the hours, as well as the counter positioned between 9 o'clock and 11 o'clock. A second counter at 6 o'clock displays the small seconds. Apart from the railway track, all time markers are coated with a Super-LumiNova C1 luminescent treatment, enabling use of this regulator-type watch in low-light conditions. Finally, the brand places its signature at 3 o'clock.

The Movement

The automatic movement AL-650 drives the hands with fluid precision. This SW461-based caliber features an oscillation frequency of 28,800 vph, a power reserve of 38 hours, and 31 jewels.

The Bracelet

The 316L stainless steel bracelet on this watch is a refined addition to your wrist. It features grey links with a brushed and polished finish, pairing effortlessly with any outfit. It is secured with a deployant clasp with grey pushers.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 20 atmospheres, equivalent to 200 meters, this model can confidently be called a "dive watch." Our watchmaking experts agree that while this timepiece handles showers, baths, sport swimming, freediving, and recreational scuba diving with ease, it is not designed for extreme deep-sea diving where pressure could compromise its water resistance. For professional divers tackling depth challenges, we recommend models rated at 30 atmospheres and above. We also advise against operating the pushers or crown while submerged in order to maintain a perfect seal.
