Alba (watch)
Alba is a sub-brand of Seiko Watch Corporation that produces a line of wristwatches. It first appeared in 1979. Using Seiko's own family of movements but with modern styling designed to appeal especially to younger customers, Alba watches are primarily aimed at Asian markets in the hope of creating long-term loyalty to the Seiko group as these customers' purchasing power increases. Many of its cleaner designs also appeal to current traditionalist consumers.

Alba (Latin: Alba Pompeia) is a town and comune of Piedmont, Italy, in the province of Cuneo. It is considered the capital of the UNESCO Human Heritage hilly area of Langhe, and is famous for its white truffle, peach and wine production. The confectionery group Ferrero is based there.
History
Alba's origins date from before the Roman civilization, connected probably to the presence of Celtic and Ligurian tribes in the area.
The modern town occupies the site of ancient Alba Pompeia, the name given after being officially recognized as a town by the Roman consul Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo while constructing a road from Aquae Statiellae (Acqui) to Augusta Taurinorum (Turin). Alba was the birthplace of Publius Helvius Pertinax, briefly Roman emperor in 193.
After the fall of the Western Empire, the city was repeatedly sacked by Ostrogoths, Burgundians, Byzantines, Lombards, Franks, Hungarians and Saracens. In the 11th century it become a free commune (or city-state) and was a member of the Lombard League. Montferrat and the Visconti fought over the town; later it became a possession of the Gonzaga. Charles Emmanuel I of Savoy conquered it twice, while later France and Spain battled for its possession. The Treaty of Cherasco (1631) assigned Alba definitively to Savoy. During Napoleonic Wars, it was part of Republic of Alba in 1796 and Subalpine Republic, which were French clients before annexing to French Empire in 1802. It was an arrondissement center in firstly Tanaro department between 1802-1805, later in Stura one between 1805-1814 before liberation by Austrian troops. It was returned to Kingdom of Sardinia (Duchy of Savoy's name after gaining Sardinia in 1720) in 1814.

Deus poderos, senher si a vos platz
Al meu companh siatz fizels aju da
Qu'eu non lo vi, pos la noitz fon venguda
Et ades sera l'alba!
Bel companho, si dormetz o veillatz?
Non dormatz plus, suau vos ressidatz
Qu'en orien vei l'estela creguda
Qu'amenal jorn, qu'eu l'ai ben coneguda
Et ades sera l'alba!
Bel dos companh, tan sui en ric sojorn
Qu'eu no volgra mais fos alba ni jorn
Car la gensor que anc nasques de maire
Tenc e abras, per qu'eu non prezi gaire
