 Intimidating piece, Oscar. I love that movement and the extra detail on the inner dial is a good addition. I see this is a little beyond your size boundaries....and for sure, a keeper. Enjoy!!!bravo.gif

 Great choice, O.

I bought an Alpina Extreme Diver (SS on that amazing "stretchy" rubber they use) a couple of weeks ago, and my office buddy here liked it so much he bought it from me, so sadly no pics.

I am loving the fit and finish on these surprising but underrated watches, so I will keep an eye out for a 48mm RG cased version.

Gotta love that clear presentation and the design on your diver.

Gnarly, dude!
