There's not much to dislike about this watch: ![black alpinist black alpinist](/cms/images/stories/watchpix/SBCJ021/sbcj019-c.jpg ) The black face version (SBCJ019) looks so very sharp, but after a few black face watches, i thought something different was called for. So I picked up the all luminova face model: ![alpinist lume dial alpinist lume dial](/cms/images/stories/watchpix/SBCJ021/sbcj021.jpg) The gold markers were a drawback for me, as I wear no gold, but thought I'd take the plunge - glad I did, it's a striking watch that wears as good as it looks. The "throwback" nature of the watch is also interesting: ![alpinist ad alpinist ad](/cms/images/stories/watchpix/SBCJ021/ad_prospex02.jpg )
