First Date With Alpina

Meeting the Alpiner Heritage Carrée Automatique

The irony of running a watch show is that you hardly have a moment to sit down and actually look at the watches themselves! Lara Poppy is the CEO of LIVE Teams, the communications and events agency behind Geneva Watch Days, and she takes a rare morning breather to check out the Alpina Alpiner Heritage Carrée Automatique, a vintage-inspired model that — on paper at least — seems to tick all her boxes. But will that be enough to generate real-life chemistry? Can this retro-styled watch keep up with Lara’s fast-paced lifestyle? And will they be exchanging phone numbers for a second date?
