Alpina recently released the AlpinerX and we just had to take a look at this innovative piece of technology. They have released four variants of the new model in an orange (AL-283LBO5AQ6) and a black (AL-283LBB5AQ6) silicone strap as well as two others in blue and black. Both of these models are available for £795.00 and are available for pre-order on our website today! Referred to as the ‘perfect blend of Alpina heritage and modernism’ the new timepieces are perfect for any outdoor enthusiast and should be an integral piece of any adventurers kit.
The AlpinerX boasts a range of incredible features for measuring your environment such as an Altimeter, Barometer, Connected GPS, Compass, UV Indicator and a Thermometer. All these features help wearers to work with their environment as well as analyse their surroundings to be able to either plan their route or even allow you to adjust your training to make the most of mother nature.
This new hybrid smartwatch from Alpina also has a huge amount of features designed to assist you with your active lifestyle and day to day health. The AlpinerX does this through features such as Activity Tracking, Dynamic Coach, Sleep Monitoring and Smart Alarms.
Not only this but the watch also assists wearers in the normal day to day life, the average human works for approximately 39.2 hours a week which is an incredible amount of their time spent getting to places as well as communicating often by sending and receiving messages. The AlpinerX can send you notifications of texts and phone call alerts, record time with a stopwatch, it has a world timer for keeping you on time wherever in the world you are and has a Swisscloud Connect feature which we will talk about in more depth later.
Lets take a closer look at each of the watches features and see what they have been specifically designed for, we’re excited!
Altitude
So as most of you are aware an altimeter function measures the accumulated atmospheric pressure at your specific location and displays this as an altitude reading. This allows you to track the altitude of say a mountain that you are climbing in real time from the digital display on your watch face, it is also updated while you walk and can be read continuously.
Barometer
A Barometer is an essential piece of equipment for any outdoors adventurer, Regular measurements of the atmospheric pressure give you the weather trend. When the pressure is rising, the weather is likely to improve. When it is falling, bad weather is on the way. You can also quickly check any pressure change by looking at the graphs displayed in the application, or the barometer gauge.
Compass
An embedded digital sensor in the watch measures the earth’s magnetic north. The watch will show you the direction by aligning the hour hand towards the north and the minute hand towards the south. You can align your map direction wherever you are, even offline
GPS
The connected GPS records your courses, walks, runs, etc. via the application. Start and stop recording from the watch and after synchronising with the app, you will be able to display your course on the map, with altitude and activity data.
UV Indicator
The UV (Ultra Violet) index is a measure of human skin response to different sunlight wavelengths (UVA, UVB) and was standardized by the World Health Organization. The watch’s embedded UV sensor will measure in real time the highest index at your exact location indicating the need to protect your skin and eyes. A feature particularly pertinent at altitude or in areas where the UV rays are less filtered by the atmosphere.
Thermometer
The temperature is measured at regular intervals by the embedded sensor. You will be able to read the current temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Thanks to the companion app, you will visualise the variation of the temperature over time on a graph
Activity Tracking
Keep track easily of daily steps, calories burned, and total distance achieved day after day. You can also define your own objectives and track your step counting
