Alpina Alpiner Extreme Quartz

It’s perfectly possible for a watch to be good-looking, sexy, sporty – and quartz-powered. Somebody has to say it: even the most seasoned of collectors wear quartz watches when engaging in extreme pursuits or simply outdoor activities in general. That said, functionality is no excuse for sacrificing elegance. The new Alpiner Extreme Quartz is here to prove as much: with an ultra-compact diameter of 34 x 35.20mm, a diamond-set bezel and a turquoise strap matching the glacier blue hues of the dial, this beautiful timepiece is ready for any outdoor adventure off the beaten track, from Alpine lakes to sandy shores. Released in an ultra-limited edition of just 83 pieces (a nod to the year Alpina was founded, 1883), it boasts three exclusive features: a bespoke dial, two jewel-set bands on the bezel and a dedicated, matching rubber strap.
