Always interested in Chronos around the $2500 mark - Sinn 356 being my current front runner.
Alpina's Alpiner Chronograph seems to be a pretty solid option, assuming the AL750 Caliber is basically the Valjoux 7750 (website only seems to discuss the AL725 which is but omits the small seconds hand).
Has the supposed advantage of being a Swiss maker. Nice, relatively restrained size at 41.5mm

Any thoughts or experiences?
