A new take on its most recent predecessor, the Alpine Challenge, Stuhrling Original brings you a brand new timepiece that redefines the way everyone looks at style and elegance. This watch combines the dressy look of a skeleton watch with the blazing personality of a sport watch. Welcome the Alpine Slalom and the Lady Alpine Slalom! Just at first glance you can tell this is a timepiece made to impress, if not with its intricate dial work, then through its sheer size. The Alpine Slalom for the men measures in at a very impressive 52mm, while the LadiesÃÀ version measures in at 36mm! Like the other watches in the Alpine Series, this watch features all the signature designs: the scalloped edges on the case, the bulbous crown with rubber ring, and that beautiful domed crystal that gives the Alpine an entirely different level of three-dimensionality. As much as the Slalom is similar to the classic Alpines, this timepiece was designed with features that make it entirely unique in its own right. Rather than the normal Alpine faceplate, the Slalom is outfitted with a skeletonized faceplate instead, which reveals even more of the movement! This mechanical automatic holds nothing back when it comes to aesthetic quality; the Roman numeral markers for 12, 4, ad 8, along with the cigar-style hands have been treated with Luminova for unbelievable luminescence! The Alpine Slalom comes with a beautiful mesh bracelet, stainless steel, flexible, and extremely comfortable in how it conforms to the wrist. With dedication to the heritage of watchmaking, Stührling Original timepieces appeal to the most discriminating taste at reasonable prices. Through meticulous labor and rigorous testing, the vision of the Stührling Original timepiece is brought to life inside our workshops, where “Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort.” Assembling a Stührling Original mechanical automatic movement comprises no less than 30 checkpoints, spread throughout the assembly process. The movement must meet more than 7 criteria, including a mean variation in rate which is the highest standard in its class in the industry. Stührling Original remains committed to its mission of preserving high manufacturing standards on all of their fine timepieces. Each and every model conveys an inimitable story with extraordinary style.

Horrible
The second hand came loose the first week i wore it. Somehow it still kept time though. 2 months later, the watch stopped keeping time when wound, and i mean by a difference of at least half an hour - not a few seconds. I would return it, but i don't wear it everyday and didn't find the problems in the first 30 days. and Gee, the manufacturer has nothing to say.Unfortunately for me, i also purchased the men's version for my husband. Last week his stem pulled completely out, so now the time can't be set.Needless to say, i'm thrilled.

Delicate
The watch arrived on time, the watch is really delicate for every day use, mine has even stopped working even though I hadn't even used it, really not happy about it.

Only works occaisionally.
This watch came with the second hand compeletly unattached - which I had fixed because I really like the look of this watch. Then I replaced the band because it's metal and was way too long so it would flop all over and get snagged on things. Now a year later, it only works occaisionally and usually doesn't keep acurrate time. I should have returned it from the start.

Excellent watch. DON'T OVERWIND!!
I bought one of these a number of years ago. It's still working. The trick is to NOT to overwind! This will mess the watch up and in my case, the second hand went loose. It was an easy fix at the local watch shop for less than $20. I didn't bother trying to see if the warranty would work. Lesson learned. Wind only as needed. Still works.I find the watch band really annoying. The band that keeps the ends from flapping around always slips loose. I've considered replacing it several times, but haven't found a band that would match the watch.
