Swiss watch brand Alpina and the Freeride World Tour has announced their partnership for the 2019 competition season that started with an exceptional competition in Hakuba, Japan on January 19th-26th,after the successful collaboration last year at the Xtreme Verbier finals taking place in Verbier, Switzerland.
The competition continues in Kicking Horse, Canada on the 2nd and 3rd of February, before moving to Austria, Andorra and Switzerland.
In order to celebrate the collaboration between Alpina Watches and the Freeride World Tour, Alpina is launching a special AlpinerX watch with a dedicated design developed hand in hand with the FWT.
Conceived for outdoor enthusiasts, the watch uses the dedicated AlpinerX companion application, available for iPhone or Android: it tracks your heart rate, measures altitude, pressure, has a GPS function and sends live data on the watch which is very helpful to gain better performance.
This special edition watch is marked by the official Freeride World Tour logo at 2 o’clock and comes with an aged dark brown leather strap. The watch will be available in a selected number of retailers in Japan, France, Austria, Canada and Switzerland.
