Designed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of man’s first walk on the moon, the Alpina AlpinerX Space Edition watch has been tested at higher altitudes than anywhere on Earth. In fact, as part of the “Reach Your Summit” campaign, this timepiece spent about 3 hours in space at an altitude just shy of 34,000 meters. While you may not ever find yourself that high up, the watch has a unique blend of modern features and timeless style to suit any thrill seeker. Part of a limited-edition run of just 299 pieces, the watch offers a host of handy features—from activity and sleep tracking to a barometer, compass, temperature gauge, worldtimer, chronograph, 2-year charge-free battery, and more. Armed with a sapphire crystal, lightweight fiberglass case, and a deep blue look, it features a caseback engraved with a moon inside of the signature Alpina triangle, too.
With a name like Alpina, it only makes sense this storied watch brand took root among the Swiss mountains. Founded by Swiss alpinists in 1883, Alpina set out to create timepieces that would hold up to the rigors of extreme outdoor conditions. Given that the company made the first anti-shock, anti-magnetic, and waterproof stainless steel watches in the world—and was one of Europe’s leading watchmakers throughout the early 20th century—it’s clear it succeeded in its mission. Today, with more than 130 years’ experience under its belt, Alpina continues to innovate and deliver on its promise, boasting a proven collection of outdoor-ready timepieces in a bevy of styles.
