Looks fantastic to me.
I don't know anything about the brand, or the quality. But this seems like a very well thought out piece for a more than fair price.
I have gambled on 2 similar purchases in the last 5 years. I ordered the initial Laventure diver and Airain Type 20 Verte Militaire. I had never seen nor tried on either of these. Both remain in my collection and are worn frequently; fantastic pieces that are even better considering the entry price. This Alpine inspired design might be another roll of the dice for me.
New release from Maison Boanton with the « Heritage » limited edition
Maison Boanton is launching a watch which is going to talk to the heart of watch and car lovers and particularly the aficionados of the famous Alpine A110. Indeed this « Heritage » was inspired by the emotion of this iconic French car and so many details ...
These are photos of the prototype…
So it’s not possible that he already has one but he might order one as many Alpine fans 😉 future will tell…
That’s impressive with every design element being thoughtfully chosen.
I honestly didn’t know about this company, but they did good here…and no date for Nico!
Very cool piece!
And fitting the Alpine vibe very well (in my eyes better than the official watches). Just one small detail - the A110 was launched in October 1962, not 1955 (the year of the other French icon, the DS). 😊
Thanks for correcting me 😉 indeed the first Alpine was from 1955 but it was a A106
The A110 was indeed launched in 1962 👍
I wish I was an Alpine lover because
this looks like their best attempt yet. I've always liked their cushion case, but the Ellipse and the Emblème left me a bit unsatisfied. This new model looks great, but the automotive inspiration is so strong with the steering wheel hands that it seems ha...
You might be right, it might be hard to relate if you are not an Alpine or at least car fan but…
…this is a limited edition of only 252 pcs so it shouldn’t be a problem for this watch to find its clients. And yes they have a new classic collection also. I’ll talk about it shortly…😉
We’ll arrange that at your earliest convenience my friend! 😉
The wrist test is always the only relevant one 😉

Thanks for your comments Michael!
Fully agreed with you. I didn’t mention the price but you are so much right, this one is not only quite well done and well thought out but also is at a quite fair and competitive price
