In 1963, Swiss watch maker Alpina first launched its COMTESSE lady collection with automatic movements. In 2014 Alpina brings back its COMTESSE lady line to mark its long tradition in the design of fine lady watches, which has started in the 1920’s. The Ambassadress for the ALPINA COMTESSE Collection is TINA MAZE, double Olympic ski champion in Sochi.

The new range of Alpina COMTESSE watches is a delightful balance of sportiness and elegance. The COMTESSE line embodies the concept of Swiss Alpine Chic to the fullest: Swissness, Character, Luxury and Simplicity.
Simple but assertive lines and a sporty 3 links bracelet blend with a mother of pearl dial adorned with diamonds or drop shaped indexes and a rounded, polished stainless steel bezel, with or without diamonds.
Ladies will love the elegant yet strong presence of this watch, which can accompany any attire and recalls the timeless alpine glamour of the St.Moritz style.
The 34mm diameter size perfectly corresponds to today’s fashion and the automatic movement ads the mechanical dimension, which is a must for a luxury lady sport chic timepiece.
