Bigger is better... not always

Thank you to Alpina for reminding us that there is truly something to be said for holding back a little!

Behold - the Alpina Diver Midsize - available in black or a pearlescent white dial, this is a very welcome return to a more sane interpretation of what is really needed.  38 mm, when last I checked, was a pretty fair size.  Not every watch is a Panerai - and not every watch should try to be!  This is a refreshing take on size.
