I really like the Alpina line of watches and I was wondering what is the quality (f/f) and where is the best place to purchase (ie: discount) TIA!!!

Quality outstanding. Fit and finish of the highest level. Solid, tight... perfect. No disappointment at all. The best place to buy is the secondary market!!:shock:

Yes, there is now a 42mm version. That's for the ladies!! ;) You gotta go for the big one!!;) Extremely well balanced even at 48mm. Not at all top heavy like some of the oversized divers can be...:cool:
