i spoke to Ross this am, he also has that Killer Glacier blue in stock which to me is cooler than the other blue variant. ALso not sure if you guys noticed but there is a very small magnifier window built into the date cut out...very cool.

Get some photos of the salmon dial if they have it.

Re: Alpina's Startimer Pilot Heritage Automatic GMT
So I got to handle the glacier blue version Thursday night and this afternoon.
Here are pics and the lighting was tough but did my best. My wrist is 6.8” for reference. It’s not too long and wears better than I expected. The case is beautiful as is the dial. Lots to like and two things that could be seen as drawbacks: 23mm lug width and non-screw down crown
I left impressed and will get one. Good deals to be had too.
Thursday night at the Blancpain event. They had dim blue light and didn’t do the watch justice.
Today

Re: Alpina's Startimer Pilot Heritage Automatic GMT
That looks really good!
If this is the same movement as in the Ice Legacy GMT, I've found mine to be extremely accurate. The jump hour hand is perfect for travel.

Re: Alpina's Startimer Pilot Heritage Automatic GMT
Looks awesome. Love it. Those 2 drawbacks don't bother me at all. Thx B . Plus with my BPs, JLc etc I have no prob w 23mm strap.

On 7.75" wrist for reference.
Looks great in person. Waiting for the lighter blue to arrive in stock to compare and pick one
