What is amazing about the Alpha's is the quality for the price. I was shocked when the first lot of 33 pieces arrived at my door. I was truly expecting cheap knockoffs. I have the Alpha Explorer I and it keeps very good time and looks amazing.

Its funny, but more people end up comparing these watches to MUCH more expensive pieces, which is truly amazing when you consider how much and Alpha costs!

I hope to start taking orders for the next group purchase next week!

Good news about another group buy!

One question - the jump hour I bought for a friend seemed to come with a very long strap on it. I have a smallish wrist, but he doesn't, and the holes in the strap did not go small enough for him. I ended up using my strap hole punch to make another hole that was smaller than the smallest provided, but that left a good amount of strap hanging out.

Do they offer different length straps?

Thanks.

That's a good question. I would contact Mr. CF through the Alpha website and ask him. He's been very good about answering my questions.
