Alan32 843 Posted March 14 Time to change to my evening watch. Today it's a Dugena M-Tech with power reserve from the 1990s , with a non-hacking, non hand winding Swiss movement at 21,600 vph The bracelet is a Omega Seamaster professional PO............... apparently Renaming of the German Alpina to Dugena From about 1909, there is a branch in Glashütte, which bears the name “Präcisions-Uhrenfabrik Alpina”. 1917 the Deutsche Uhrmachergenossenschaft Alpina (German watchmaker cooperative Alpina) is created by the concentration of the watch factories Biel-Geneva and Glashütte in Eisenach. 1927 their headquarters is moved to Berlin. During World War II, the Allies prohibit the Union Horlogère to continue to market in Germany under the name “Alpina”. Therefore, 1942 in Berlin it is decided to rename Alpina into “DUGENA - Deutsche Uhrmacher-Genossenschaft Alpina” (German watchmaking cooperative Alpina). As a unique trademark the circle in the triangle is chosen, under which the new brand achieves a high level of awareness. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
