Alpina, the sister brand of Frederique Constant, is a brand that is still very much underestimated. Let me introduce you its CEO …
Guido Benedini, after successfully working in various companies and positions in the Swatch Group, has taken over Alpina. The 1883 founded brand has an impressive history and was a pioneer in the watch making history. Today it stands for good design and quality and affordable prices.

That diver is a beauty. It’s in a class similar to the Longines Legend Diver IMO. Very well done, but if I had a criticism it would be the placement of the date window.
