The Alpina Startimer range is one of the brand’s cornerstones, and frequently references Alpina’s long history as a supplier of military and aviation watches. These watches, however, take things in a slightly different direction. Three dials - pale anthracite, a rich sunray blue, and one that takes both colors and ble
