Lakeland, FL (April 14, 2017) – This past week, Alpina made its debut at the annual Sun ’n Fun Fly-In and Expo as the Official Timekeeper alongside their Global Brand Ambassador, champion aviator, Michael Goulian.
As the first air show appearance for the brand, Alpina looked to highlight Michael through a series of activations and events including an intimate evening cocktail to celebrate the new partnership as well as connecting with people actively involved in the aviation industry.
Alpina previously announced its partnership with Michael in March, highlighting the brand’s rich history in pilot timepieces. The brand’s participation at the Sun ’n Fun Fly-In and Expo was the first activation with him as the main attraction during the show with multiple appearances and aerial performances.
