TELEMETER SCALE USE
Example 2:
calculating the distance between your
position and an upcoming storm. Start the chronograph
when you see the lightning; then stop the chronograph
when you hear the thunder. Read off the distance
indicated by the central chronograph hand on the
telemetric scale. In our example the storm is 5 km away
from your position.

COMPASS BEZEL
Only for:

Alpina watches featuring a 360° rotating compass
bezel can roughly determine directions – a particularly
useful feature for orientation sports and other adventure
or alpine sports.
COMPASS USE INSTRUCTIONS ON ALPINER 4
CHRONOGRAPH AND ALPINER 4 GMT*
Precautions in using a compass bezel:
- Do not use the compass in situations where
accuracy is critical. The compass only gives a
rough indication of direction.
- Use the compass where the sun is visible or its
location known.
- Your watch must be set to winter time. If daylight
savings time (summer time) is in effect in your
area, you must set your watch one hour behind
before using the compass bezel.
