Swiss watch brand Alpina releases two new versions of the Comtesse Horological Smartwatch, expressing a modern balance of a sporty elegance and the flawless execution of Swiss connected watchmaking.
Launched in 1963, the first ever Comtesse collection consisted of automatic movements. Four years ago, the Comtesse Horological Smartwatch was born as the result of development between Alpina and the Swiss brand MMT.
The watch is linked via a mobile application powered by an MMT-281-1 module. It can record and track daily life activities such as: activity tracking, sleep monitoring, dynamic coaching, smart alarms and call & messages notifications. All the collected data can be stored and backed-up via the app. This function enables the user not to worry about synchronizing his data as it is independently stored for a month.
Another practical option is the world-timer with 24 hours time zones to choose from. Your watch can adapt to the time anywhere in the world. Easy to use, all the connected functions are operated by the crown pusher. The icons are displayed on the dial representing: a message bubble and a phone: for notifications, a figure: for activity and smart alarms and finally a crescent moon for the sleep monitoring. The watch can work independently with its two year battery life.
With an ultra-sporty glass-fiber 36mm diameter case body and lugs, the models sit lightly on the wrist. The case back features an engraving which remains in stainless steel. These models are appealing with their bold aesthetics, such as the PVD coated stainless steel bracelet.
The round black dials distinguish themselves with the addition of the black bezel marked by silver or rose gold plated indexes. The Arabic numerals, both hands and indexes are equipped with a luminous treatment. By day or by night, the dials have an easy readability. Their simplicity emphasizes the minimalist aspect of the watches.
Protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, this timepiece is water resistant up to 60 meters.
The app which connects to the smartwatches via Bluetooth are available on both iOS and Android systems.
