Carrée Automatic 140 Years

Story

A geometric landmark inspired by a 1930s icon

The Alpiner Heritage Carrée Automatic 140 Years celebrates nearly a century and a half of Swiss watchmaking with a design pulled straight from the archives. Drawing inspiration from a 1938 original, this rectangular timepiece features a striking black dial with geometric Arabic numerals and a dedicated small-seconds sub-dial. It’s a sophisticated blend of "Roaring Twenties" aesthetics and modern automatic reliability, finished with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal for a clear view of its historic lineage.
