The new Alpine Eagle marks the debut of platinum in the line. The watch has a 41mm ultra-thin case paired with a reshaped bracelet. The bezel features eight indexed screws and the dial has an original ‘Shades of Ice’ blue dial, whose radiating pattern draws inspiration from the Eagles’ iris. Further, the baton hour markers are applied with Grade X1 Super-LumiNova®, and hands are coated with Grade X1 Super-LumiNova®. The counterweight of the seconds hand appears like an eagle’s feather.
