    Alpina World Timer - When Will It Be Available

    In Canada? Saw the media release last week and it hasn't left my mind. What a stunning looking timepiece.

    i'm heading to an AD this week to pick up a bezel, so i'll be sure to ask about it and try on some Alpina pilots as well!
    Will let you know once they call me. Same boat as you, saw it last week and have been thinking about it constantly

    so went to the AD today and got to try on some Startimers, both 44mm chrono and automatic, and they even had a 41mm pilot which isn't listed in their site!
    they said during the next shipment they should be getting the worldtimer and MSRP is $3450. didn't bother asking for a discount since i wasnt going to buy yet anyway

    Thanks for finding out. Can't wait to try it on. If it looks as good as it does in the pics, it's going to be hard to walk out empty handed.

    will probably head back there to check it out since they will call me when it is in :) have to say the fit and finish of Alpina is really up there and it already was very hard to walk out without getting the startimer!

    on a side note, the 44mm startimer felt a tad big while the 41mm felt too small

    Hello,
    When you do try it on, would you please check if it has independent hour hand adjustment capability. That would make it a true travel/gmt watch.

    Thanks,
    heb

    Sweet. That's the same as U.S. MSRP. Usually we get gouged up here by 10-20% over American pricing, even though the Canadian dollar is at par or stronger. I wonder if the AD in Vancouver made a mistake?

    thumbs up! I will be back to the AD to check out these worldtimers in person!! Thanks for the update PeterStas!!

    BrentYYC, they didn't really "tell" me the price but when they were showing me the sell sheet with the world timer and others, the price was just listed there
