Alfex extends its Big series with Big Adventure watch

Alfex of Switzerland has just revealed its new Big Adventure model. Powered by a quartz movement by Ronda, the watch features sporty and energetic (alas, definitely inexpensive) design with an open calendar and a small seconds counter at 7 o’clock.

Although definitely not a piece of art, the watch is by no means ugly. It comes equipped with an integrated, internal rotating reflector and a 60-min timer.

One more thing to worry about is that while one would expect to wear this watch on a stainless steel bracelet it is sold with either brown or a black wrist band, depending on the dial’s color.

The Alfex Big Adventure watch are water-resistant up to 5 atmospheres (50m or 165ft), which basically means that you can take shower in it but should avoid wearing the timepiece while diving.
