Fortis B-42 Black Black Limited Edition

Presented for the first time in spring in Basel,  The FORTIS B-42 BLACK BLACK will not only appeal to purists among the watch lovers. The Titanium case, coated black in PVD, houses a Swiss automatic movement with day/date indication (20 bar/200 m water-resistant).

The decent look of the luminous elements of hands and bezel in combination with numerals and indices results from the black Superluminova luminous coating. The sapphire crystal, anti reflective coating on both sides, is seized by a divers' turning bezel, which is adjustable with 120 notches in steps of half a minute.
