Victorinox-comparison.jpg

More photos of the Victorinox Alpnach, which was officially announced earlier this week, have emerged. First, there is a previously unreleased black dial version with green accents (pictured below). Second, is the previously released dark grey dial version with orange accents, which now has a lighter colored grey dial and a black Victorinox logo, as opposed to white. It is not uncommon for a watch company to change design details, such as the dial, at the last minute. And it appears Victorinox did just that.

Launched in 2004, the Chronopro was the premiere Victorinox Swiss Army mechanical chronograph. This year's redesign sports the same 42mm solid-steel case with crown protector but adds new functionality and optimizes legibility. Among the most striking upgrades are a dual finish bezel displaying the tachymeter scale, larger numerals and luminescent hands, counters with applied rings and a minute scale on the flange. A bright red 60-second counter hand dominates the enhanced dial, for instant, at-a-glance reading. Turn it over -- the powerful, Swiss-crafted Valjoux 7750 movement is visible through an exhibition caseback in mineral crystal. Available on a genuine black leather strap with a brushed matte finish, cream-colored contrast stitching and an integrated pushbutton-deployant safety clasp.
