The new Victorinox Swiss Army Alpnach Black Ice (ref. 14733) automatic chronograph offers a boring dial with all the usual indicators and apertures that we normally see in ETA 7750-powered watches, but at least features a rather unusual bezel.
The young Swiss-based brand has recently added the new A.B.Art Serie MA (refs. MA 101 & MA 102) collection to its growing family of simple, Bauhaus-styled timekeepers.
Perrelet is mostly known to the public for its flashy Turbine Collection featuring the iconic "Double Rotor" design. Recently, the brand has introduced whole three special-edition versions: the blingy "007," the patriotic "America," and the playful (in all meanings of the word) Perrelet Turbine Poker (ref. A4018/1) reviewed here.

The Luminox F-22 Raptor Chronograph (ref. 9270) is one of two new aviation-inspired chronographs from the revered American brand.
As you may have already guessed, the 2011 self-winding Alpina Startimer Pilot Manufacture Aviation is not an ordinary "aviator". The new model not only offers superb legibility both in broad daylight and in total darkness but also features an in-house movement: a rare thing even among relatively expensive timekeepers.
