Alpina presents the re-release of the historic 1965 Tropic-Proof design that embodies the adventurer's watch. At that time, transatlantic flight was becoming more routine to many, and watches needed to withstand international climate differences, which included the extreme moisture of the tropics. With an ultra-robust case and a design focusing on readability, it paved the way for the Alpina watches of today. A brushed and polished stainless steel 3-part, 34mm case with a gloss finish black dial, silver tone indexes, minute track with beige Luminova dots, hand-polished silver tone hour, minute and seconds hands also filled with beige Luminova. A threaded solid case back with an engraved Heritage pattern, and delivered on a beige Alcantara strap with tone-on-tone stitching and pin buckle.
