Founded in 1883, but fallen into disuse due to the quartz crisis, it was mainly through the Alpiner Extreme Regulator - at the time called the Avalanche Extreme Regulator - that Alpina found its way back to the top in the early 2000s. The Alpiner Extreme Regulator is a watch that accompanied the brand's rebirth and still helps it reach a new level today thanks to its unique look: a new, more compact and vigorous case and a dial whose color and pattern make it unique. Presented at the Geneva Watchdays 2022, this model caught my eye in the first second. Complication, look, color, Alpina has created the ideal watch to add to the collection. Atypical, precise, devilishly successful, this watch very quickly reached the top 3 of my watches (or even first place but shhh). The watch is now available in a 41 mm diameter - compared to 48 mm previously. In the dial, the superposition of the triangles captures the sun's rays to shine a specific light on the dial, allowing their reflections to blend and bring it to life and relief. Produced in granite gray, reflecting the mountains where Alpina comes from, this dial offers a perfect contrast with the blue hour and second counters on which the luminescent indexes turn. For the first time, it is perfectly conceivable for a person to wear their Alpiner Extreme Regulator Automatic in all situations, men and women. This diameter of 41 opens up new horizons for it: any terrain and anyone! I am a fan and if I had to keep only one... shh 😉
