Saying I love this dial would be an understatement. I simply cannot get enough of it.

That is what this passion is all about for me!

When a watch provides that level of enjoyment... wow. It just has to be experienced. And when more than 1 makes you feel like that - Well, that is the stuff of lifelong enthusiasts. Bravo to you, my Friend!!!

You are so right Michael! Clearly this one and all of the Alpine Eagle are doing this same feeling for me. Not all of my watches have that same level of excitement but am getting there!

Nothing better than hitting the sweet spot ….

By: Cpt Scarlet : March 25th, 2024-16:32

That’s what we all perpetually search for !

So true my friend. I wish I can continue to hit the sweet spot for all future acquisitions!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:32

Yep, I can certainly see why!

By: Aquaracer1 : March 25th, 2024-16:46

🤩 🍒🚨

Thanks you kindly Aquaracer1!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:32

That watch is spectacular - I am not surprised!

By: als1678 : March 25th, 2024-16:48

I have a gray dial alpine eagle, the original 8HZ. More subtle but also beautiful. I found your post especially interesting because I have surprisingly also fallen in love with a recent addition - a red dial grand Seiko. There is something about those dia...

That's is a beauty! I almost got the US only spring drive edition with a similar dial - I think its called katana - while I was in the US but couldn't make it work timing wise with my schedule...

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:34

It is really beautiful to look at…

By: Clueless_Collector : March 25th, 2024-17:25

Only gets better like a fine wine 🍷 Cheers! ...

Indeed its dark red hue makes it very appealing!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:35

🍷cheers!

By: hora12reborn : March 25th, 2024-20:45

Love that shade of red !

By: Jtl : March 25th, 2024-21:03

The watch or the dial!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:08

Or both 🤪

The dial looks like wine color in that lighting.

By: Jtl : March 25th, 2024-22:49

But I would not recommend trying to drink it :-)))

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:50

Please do not drink and fly, never mind the driving.

By: Jtl : March 25th, 2024-23:02

Are you speaking from experience 🤪🤪🤪

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-23:49

Hahaha ! For the public safety, I do hide and drink instead !

By: Jtl : March 26th, 2024-00:01

LOL

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 26th, 2024-10:17

It’s important that love be expressed IMO

By: Larrykelley11 : March 25th, 2024-17:40

Unique and beautiful dial, no question!

Thanks Larry! Cheers

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:35

It’s a beautiful…

By: Musashi83 : March 25th, 2024-18:11

dial, I know exactly how you feel. I love looking at my latest acquisition and I constantly take photos of it!

Phew, I am not "normal" then :-)))

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:36

Happy Monday with your bright Australian work-of-art-watch!

By: patrick_y : March 25th, 2024-18:46

Thank you Patrick! Enjoy your week ahead

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:36

You have 3 or 4 versions yes?

By: myles721 : March 25th, 2024-19:35

Is this your favorite?

Yes I have 4 of them and honestly I could not pick a favorite for now. I like each one as they each are different on the wrist

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:41

...

Wow! Four of them!

By: patrick_y : March 25th, 2024-19:42

Any reliability problems so far? I know they're probably too new so far.

No reliability problem. 4 different movement as well and all 4 extremely well regulated (2 sec/day when on the wrist)...so I am a very happy camper!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-19:47

Very good to know! Thank you!

By: patrick_y : March 25th, 2024-19:51

My pleasure!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-20:43

The fab four👏

By: hora12reborn : March 25th, 2024-20:45

They are to me anyway! ☺️

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:09

Fantastic 4 ! Love them all.

By: Jtl : March 25th, 2024-21:05

Thanks. Like children’s, I love them all! 🤣🤣🤣

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:09

Haha yacomino, all eagles no matter what dial color may appear more red and hot to touch than usual like fire depending on how the children behave ! ;-)))

By: Jtl : March 25th, 2024-22:45

:-))

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:51

I pity you your dilemma 😉🤣🥹

By: myles721 : March 25th, 2024-21:26

That is indeed a challenge but they are so different that depending on my mood, it’s easier to decide!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:10

FWIW

By: myles721 : March 25th, 2024-21:28

I prefer the chrono…

Well I will thé chrono has such a strong presence on the wrist and provide a sporty yet chic feel none of my other watches provide…I love it to (on a bracelet). Tried the rubber strap on it but I get tired of rubber strap easily

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : March 25th, 2024-22:11

You have every reason in the world to be excited about this piece. I share your Enthusiasm

By: aperna : March 25th, 2024-19:50

It's so rewarding when you get a watch that triggers the passion so much and which lives up to the expectation! Cheers my good friend!
