One will tend to take excessive amounts of pictures and videos of the fine watches in one's boutique and obsess over every fabulous detail. When these effects take hold, it is recommended that one start a blog. Welcome to ours, the Baily Blog.

New Alpina Avalanche Extreme Manufacture Regulator
by Dino on 30 April, 2008
Alpina products first series of Regulator wristwatches, presented in 2005, are a reminder of the brands heritage and fascinating history albeit with a design that is absolutely fresh and contemporary.
In 2008, Alpina is renewing with its watch making tradition, which has been the cornerstone of the brand revivals success amongst watch enthusiasts and trade professionals alike, and launches a brand-new manufacture calibre, the AL-950, in a new collection: the Alpina Manufacture Regulator.
Alpina Geneve is celebrating its 125th anniversary with the inauguration of the first movement to be made entirely in its own workshops. While this new timepiece was inspired by the distinctive angular design of the celebrated Extreme Avalanche Regulator, it reveals its own touch of originality: the case is slightly smaller and the dial skilfully designed to harmonize with its size.
