Ice Blue Glacier Dial. GMT Bezel. The Mechanical for the Traveller.

The Alba AL4469X is a men's mechanical automatic watch that goes further than any other in the Mechanical range. The black 24-hour GMT bezel — numbered 13 through 24 with arrowhead markers — allows the wearer to track a second time zone at a glance, a complication borrowed from professional travel watches and brought here at an accessible price. The ice blue glacier dial is unlike any other in the collection — a cool, pale tone with a subtle sunburst finish and small blue square pip accents between the hour markers. The oversized day-date window at 3 with its distinctive red triangle accent gives the dial a strong, confident presence. Powered by the Japan-made Y676 automatic calibre — self-winding, battery-free. Japan movement backed, Seiko quality assured.
