Watchlords

Slowly but surely, over the last decade or so, environmental initiatives have started to show up in various parts of our everyday lives. From my local grocery who no longer offers plastic shopping bags, to the worldwide shopping and logistics behemoth who has my eternal gratitude for barely ever sending items in plastic blister packs anymore. The world of luxury goods, which generally subscribes to the ethos of “more is better“, has been one of the latest notable entrants in the race to keep this planet liveable, and you see it nowhere more so than in watches. Some brands form partnerships with charities and donate portions of sales to a good cause. Others take it a step further and start looking for better and less wasteful ways to package these tiny creations that we can’t stop buying. (Mostly) gone are the days of the watch box the size of a suitcase, and the top of my closet is very grateful for this. A handful of brands go further still, and start looking for ways to cut back on material waste or even use recycled or reclaimed materials in the watches themselves. So is the case of the Alpina Seastrong Diver Gyre Automatic 2021 Edition 44mm.
