Open in The Dial AtlasThe Alpina entry in The Dial Atlas currently connects 40 cataloged references across 10 families. The catalog records 1883 as its founding year and Switzerland as its associated country. The maker is organized here as a navigable set of family and exact-reference records. These counts describe the structured archive available on this site, not the brand's complete historical output.
Start with Extreme Automatic (9 references), Extreme Quartz (7 references), Diver Extreme Automatic (6 references), Extreme Solarmetre (5 references), and Pilot Automatic (4 references). Each family page keeps related watches together while preserving the reference codes, production periods, variants, and imagery that distinguish one execution from another. This makes the brand page a practical index for moving from a maker-level overview to the evidence attached to an individual watch.
