A team of specialistdesigners, engineers and watchmakers worked hand-in-hand to revive ALPINA as a true Manufacture. Supported by the latest in high-precision equipment and driven by a passion for innovation.<br \/>\nBased on the award-winning Manufacture Regulator caliber, ALPINA Gen\u00e8ve developed its own Manufactured Tourbillon Regulator: the AL-980, completely<br \/>\nconceived within its workshops in Plan-les-Ouates, Geneva. A unique movement that presents several specific, innovative features: Silicium Escapement Wheel and Silicium lever, Smart Weight Balancing\u2122, fast oscillation at 28\u2019800 BpH and an individually numbered Tourbillon cage.<\/p>\n<p>The specific and technical designs of these new Extreme Tourbillon Regulator Manufacture models capitalize on the strong brand philosophy of ALPINA: highest level of accuracy, extremely high readability, shock resistance, sturdiness and reliability. The timepiece, with a bold case diameter of 48 mm, is crafted from either titanium with a pink gold bezel, or pink gold with a black ceramic bezel. The matt black dial features finely brushed steel ALPINA Double-Digit indexes. The iconic \u2018Extreme\u2019 design elements remain, and have been coupled with a more elaborate dial design: satin-brushed touches of black in the center of the \u201cRegulator\u201d subdial, skeletonized hands in black brushed steel, unique and originally decorated bridges in the Tourbillon cage and a black PVD signature ALPINA oscillating weight, visible through the sapphire crystal case back.<\/p>\n<p>It requires highly qualified and experienced watchmakers to be able to manufacture the ALPINA Tourbillon caliber. By combining technical complexities with the sports characteristics that contribute to the charm of this timepiece, ALPINA presents undoubtedly one of its most extreme creations in history\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/watchluxus.com\/alpina-gena-ve-tourbillon-regulator-manufacture\">Watchluxus<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"http:\/\/swipelife.com\/2010\/02\/11\/alpina-geneve-tourbillon-regulator-manufacture\/\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/LZSeDNsorLEgTgwCBHsjr3gkPwQ\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/LZSeDNsorLEgTgwCBHsjr3gkPwQ\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/LZSeDNsorLEgTgwCBHsjr3gkPwQ\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/LZSeDNsorLEgTgwCBHsjr3gkPwQ\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/Swipelife\/~4\/iXhSDYI0vXg\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Watchluxus: Following the great success of its first Extreme Tourbillon Regulator Manufacture \u2013 the Full Black version \u2013 at Baselworld in 2009, ALPINA Gen\u00e8ve is proud to present two new models in gold, both issued in an extremely limited series of just 18 numbered pieces.
