This watch was gifted to me by my parents a long while back and it has only been worn a small handful of time (less than 5 times), mostly sitting in its box; so I'm deciding to let this one go for the moment. The watch does have a small hairline scratch on the side of the case by the lug, and a small nick on the edge of the case where it folds underneath. I would still rate the watch as a conservative 90% new.
The watch as stated in the title is an Alpina Avalanche Extreme Regulator; features include:
Watch comes with hang tag, outer & inner box and blank warranty card.
The watch is located in Vancouver, I am asking for $1,750 + shipped (etransfer) or FTF in the lower mainland. I am willing to trade up (+cash to you) depending on the offer. The hang tag has $2790 (USD) as the MSRP, but I don't think there's that many around anymore.

Case- Rose gold plated and accented with PVD stainless steel
- 48mm case 12mm thick; the thinness of the case makes this watch wearable under the cuffs of shirts easily
- Saphire crystal and display back
Movement - Hand wound AL-650 Alpina calibre that originated from the ETA Unitas-6498-2 calibre.
- Operates at 21,600vph
- Incabloc shock protection (elastic mounted jewel bearings that protects the balance staff ensuring the pivots do not break when you drop the watch). This is what gives the watch the "Extreme" moniker from what I've learned.
Strap - The watch comes on a rubber strap that is elastic and stretches for comfort
- Black PVD buckle
- Secured by screw bar that is colour matched to case (not spring bar)
