“Among its most iconic calibres was the hand-wound Cal. 592, and it’s sweep-seconds version, Cal. 598. The 592/598 was employed in various sport watch models, including the Alpina 70 (debuted in 1953), Alpina Standard (1958) and Tropicproof(1968). Widely considered among the most robust, reliable, accurate movements of the era, Alpina 592 was selected as an instructional calibre by the Biel cantonal polytechnic watchmaking school.”
