How much? Pass... Nice brand but I'm sure with the proper search you can find cheaper.

I find this one overpriced 🤔 not even a pure bronze case, not a chronometer, 🆒️💧 resistance but not as impressive... This movement is based (copied) on the Sellita SW200 and I don't 👁 something 🆕️ like a silicon hairspring, hi-beat from 5 Hz, huge power reserve, superior shock resistance, spectacular decoration or outstanding anti magnetic properties. Lastly, I find a little bit misleading that 1️⃣ year manufacturer's warranty you get here. If you buy from an AD you get 3️⃣ years https://us.alpinawatches.com/pages/warranty

I believe it's from the 820A series, I have had it in an Aquamarine and kept excellent time, and never ran out on my winder,where as sometimes my swiss movements after sometime need winding or movement topup. I have only had the internal bezel on a Bulova Marine Chrono series which I on-sold; because the bezel was very loose and moved when you would nudge the crown: but these have screw down crowns so it shouldn't move when set;and the finish was not well "painted" on the said bezel. I can only hope it is like the Longines Heritage which I have looked at a while ago; can't remember it "clicking' ,but it was quite secure. At $460 aud which is around $330 usd. pre=order 50% discount deal I may just go for the mesh option. Certainly a hell of a lot cheaper than Alpina or Longines or the Oris option in a similar style. And at least it is built here in Australia to a high standard. Probably 10% to 20% cost of the Swiss options!

JAoneShare some pics of yours! It's indeed a great value for the money and the built quality seems pretty good.

These prices on their Alpina Spotlight are horrible. I was a huge fan of Alpina and Frederique Constant (their sister brand) watches, but won't buy them now unless they're at least 70% off now, which is not hard to find. In terms of quality, both brands gave me maintenance issues higher than average when compared to other brands. Been a few years since I've owned one, so I'm not sure if their QC has improved. However, these prices on Drop are a joke!

Deean Agreed,I have bought Alpina recently at 70% discount, QC seems great ,maybe because Citizen have acquired them. Haven't tried Frederique Constant, not really a dress watch guy, but their quality looks good for the money. It's all about bang for your buck with me; but I still have to really like the watch. I must admit when I did hunt down the Alpinas at these discounts I was very happy, until then the only high street style retailer where I am was selling them at 30% discount if you were lucky. The U.S. seems to have the most competitive online watch deals.

Nice watch but that date window placement makes me dizzy! Also, I can almost understand gold plated products to save money... but bronze plated? I don't get it! :-O

so close to being perfect...but (1) the location of the date window would drive my mild OCD crazy, and (2) PVD? come on, alpina. give us the CuSn8 that we deserve.

happyjack92 They’re already in the discontinued bin, nothing’s gonna change ’em now. Best check their current stock.

You mean these https://www.panzera.shop/product-category/aquamarine-pro-diver/ 🙂 Do you know which specific Miyota movement these have? The looks are indeed similar & I like the mesh version as well. The 💧 resistance is the same as well as the internal rotating bezel. I've never used one of these diver bezels operated by a 👑 & I'm curious about the feel, the way you get distinct clicks and how it feels being unidirectional 😁
