Where to purchase an Alpina Startimer
Do I pay an insanely low price of ~$575 at Sams Club or ~$770 at an authorized dealer? AL-525NN4S6 for reference.

Are you a rugged outdoorsman that might end up slamming your wrist upon a boulder? Then AD. As someone with a limited budget I think I’d get it from Sam’s and support a local watchmaker when you need it serviced.
And slamming it on a boulder isn't going to get you free warranty service, regardless.
You might want to check Costco also. Better return policies.

We are not members of Costco. Only Sam's.
Thanks for the votes everyone! I ordered it from Montredo in Germany for ~$760 including shipping. Through Sam's it would have been $614 including tax. So, a $150 gap. I think it was worth it.
