A Modern Swiss Pilot’s Watch With Wearable Dimensions - Alpina Startimer Pilot Automatic 41mm

[@shamanprime]

Alpina has some really interesting watches in their lineup. Well worth a look.

[@Sebastian85]

A beautiful watch. But I can`t stand the polished center links on the bracelet.

[@ChristianMoerk]

Would buy one if the bezel wasn’t fixed. You’re the only one of the web who has told us. Thanks as always, Teddy. 5:24

[@jipke]

It's a shame. If it rotated it could compete with the Breitling Aviator 8.

[@mattshaffer5935]

The leather strap variant is gorgeous!

[@nicolass2281]

Would like to get your opinion on Glycine. Think it is somewhat overlooked!

[@Memfys]

Alpina is great. I have their Startimer in 40 mm and I love it. (And it has a screw down crown!)

[@AndreiLucaa]

Looks like a Breitling Navitimer 8 - straight up homage actually 😆

[@BoozewithNick]

I love my quartz Startimer. I wore it today. I see more Alpinas in my future.

[@bobsinca]

Like Arabic indices, however, still to big for my 6.5 inch wrist and not having an adjustable brezel is a huge missed opportunity (... how did they miss that aspect).

[@unaibb]

I feel the date window is too much close to the 6. Otherwise looks good

[@genuinetool]

Came here to say this. Spot on. It needs room to breathe for the design to work.

[@salvadorHombre]

This is a result of the movement not being a proper fit for the watch.

[@claytonmedders6907]

Would be better without the date in my opinion

[@rosspfeffer5185]

Or no 6 numeral and put the date window where a 6 would be.🤔

[@evanputterill8286]

Agreed, I think removing the white border on the date window would go a long way to correcting it.

[@Juanjo191]

It's a nice watch, but for the price I would prefer to get an Oris Propilot on the grey market, or even spend a little more and get a new one

[@OTNCBC]

Looks like a Navitimer-8 - I would have bought this watch if the bezel rotated!

[@JimLecinski]

...and if it were 39mm...

[@ykhatat]

I would love to see a video featuring Hamilton pilot pioneer, especially the samller one. Good stuff. Thanks for the video.

[@sammer2587]

Beautiful and a must buy if they would have just made the bezel rotate! Inexcusable.

[@chriscon8463]

I agree! I would love a pilot or field watch aesthetic with a date complication & a rotating bezel.

[@mattsoutherden]

Doesn't look like the red triangle on the *fixed* bezel lines up with the 12 o'clock marking. 😬 Sad that the 40mm blue startimer seems to have gone from the Alpina lineup.

[@emhezmfe]

Bought one and like it. But really surprised (and a little disappointed) at lack of screw down crown. I realize still good to 100m, just like the feel of a good screw-down.

[@Kof2002dz]

i love this watch

[@williamhill7312]

Great video

[@lucasl.righetto8853]

Why there's no exhibition caseback? 😒

[@tdugong]

Nice!

[@platinum_knowledge]

Beautiful watch but the bezel is a missed opportunity.

[@Spongefov]

you lost me at 49.5mm lug to lug, nice watch though

[@PINKFL0YD-s2h]

That bezel ruined it for me. Thank you for your review.

[@2minutes-turkish]

The non rotating bezel is a sin

[@salvadorHombre]

What makes this a Pilot watch? Is it just because the brand says so? Is it because of thise small Arabic indices? Because I see nothing about this watch that indicates it would be of any use as a pilot's watch. Even the dimensions - the lugs are too long but the dial and the case diameter are too small for a Pilot Watch.

[@davidlloydjones752]

Liked these for a while, but the arabics just look a bit too small for the dial.🧐

[@MpSSpeaker]

butterlfy-claps should be forbidden on sports-watches

[@talanjohn]

Another ad…extended version. From a former reviewer.

[@davidthom7127]

Too big. NEXT?

[@nathanwabre]

This model was close to be perfect but it just missed the mark unfortunately. That bête not being a rotating one is an absolute deal breaker! Not to mention the stupid 21mm lug width and the « 1883 » just cheapening the watch all together. A real letdown this, especially being so close, just so close to be perfect…😢

[@DannyKaffee]

41mm is not small by any definition in the watch world. Pass.

[@Africoz2]

enjoy the quality and content of your vids, but please, speak a little slower please!!!! (sounds like you're reading from a script and can't wait to finish)

[@blammers]

I feel like this is a downgrade from the previous version.

[@theshadowman1398]

There is nothing pilot about this watch. It's just another boring sports model.

[@redneckster6639]

Boring design, overpriced product. Bye

[@YeCannyDaeThat]

Design is subjective. This is an "everyday, do everything" watch. It's certainly not overpriced. Bye

[@DiojoWatches]

Don't know about overpriced 🤔

[@bradleyburton4762]

@@YeCannyDaeThat your description concerning the primary function of this watch is correct. Nothing pilot
