ALPINA CONTINUES AS OFFICIAL TIMEKEEPER FOR THE "12 HOURS OF SEBRING" ENDURANCE RACE

There are 2 or 3 races in the American motor racing calendar that are, without doubt, some of the most important races not just in the States, but anywhere. The famous trinity are the Indy 500, Daytona and the daddy of them all, the 12 Hours of Sebring. The Sebring endurance race is the oldest race in the US and has welcomed teams and racers known across generations and continents.

Alpina is delighted to be able to continue to be the Official Timekeeper for the race and we are proud to offer the limited edition “12 Hours of Sebring” series of watches.

ALPINA Genève, the Swiss Manufacture famous for its sporty watches with extreme designs, is renewing its partnership with the 2009-2010 Andros Trophy as its “Official Timekeeper”.
