I’m looking to pare down my collection a bit in order to go after a long sought after piece for Christmas, so today I have available this Alpina Startimer Pilot PVD (AL-525G4TS6B), 44mm. After receiving this watch back in March as a gift, this piece never truly got the wrist time it deserves, mostly as a consequence of having too many watches. My spreadsheet indicates just 16 gentle wears in 10 months. As all my watches are, it has been babied and case kept, occasionally on a winder. It is in mint condition.The case and case back are completely free of any signs of wear or markings. The crystal is pristine. The bracelet is also in pristine condition and shows no signs of scuffing or wear - 90% of the time this watch was worn on a custom flieger strap. I would rate the quality of this piece as 10/10. You almost wouldn’t know it was a “used” watch, and is in better condition than many "open box" offerings. The only quirk with this watch is with its movement, a known issue with this brand and to some extent Sellita movements on the whole - overwinding. It does not take 15-20 winds to get it going. Once the second hand begins to move - between 5 and 7 full turns of the crown - stop winding. If you keep going, and go all the way to 20 or beyond, when you go to set the time, you might notice some slipping of the hands and the watch will also run faster than normal. If you wind normally - just enough to get it moving - it runs perfectly fine, and keeps a pretty accurate and acceptable +/- 10/12 seconds per day. Overall this watch is a great piece, not just for a pilot. This is for a complete kit - original box and manual, as well as extra links. Currently the watch is sized for a 7.5” wrist. Asking: $275, shipped with insurance. I guarantee the fit, form, and function of all of my watches, and I always disclose any known defects or imperfections. I will take returns on any watches not matching the description, but not for change of heart, sorry. I have several fairly recent transactions here on the exchange and would be happy to provide recent references. All prices include shipping to CONUS. I accept Venmo, CashAPP, and PayPal. If choosing PP and would like to do G&S, I will add 3.5% to cover the cost. Please feel free to PM me with any questions! No trades will be considered, sorry.
