Alpiner Watch 4 Flyback Chronograph

Description

Alpiner Watch 4 Flyback Chronograph. With the automatic calibre AL-760, the technicians made the considered choice of a modular mode of construction based on the tried and tested AL-710 with a winding rotor operating in both directions. The control mechanism of the front mounted chronograph is distinguished by its ingenious construction, which achieves the highest degree of functionality with only 96 components. And it adheres to the dictum that nothing can break down and fail if it is not there in the first place! Special features of the new chronograph include a directly actuated flyback function. With this useful function, the 8th second chronograph can be stopped and restarted from zero by pressing the push piece just once. A counter at 3 o clock adds cumulative times up to 30 minutes. Opposite, at 9 o clock, the permanent seconds hand rotates as usual. And incorporated into the Super LumiNova highlighted dial with the utmost harmony, the date hand is positioned at 6 o clock. Of course, Alpina also made the hands luminous at night. The AL-760 movement beats at a frequency of 4 Hertz in its large stainless steel case, reminiscent of the legendary Alpina 4 of 1938. The screwed case back bears the well known Alpina logo.
