How Fortis Reinvented The Flieger Watch: F-41, F-39, GMT & F-43 Review

When it comes to the history of watches, few brands are as important as Fortis. Today I proudly share not one, but four watches for review that I’ve been waiting nearly two years to get my greedy horological mitts on. Fortis has made history with their pilot watches, from supplying over a dozen elite military air force squadrons around the world, to ultimately being chosen by the Russian Federal Space Agency to equip their astronauts. Today we’ll take a look at the Fortis F-39 (39mm), F-41 (41mm), F-43 Triple-GMT and F-43 Bicompax chronograph (both 43mm). These are some of the toughest watches you’ll find on the market. But they’re not just another collection of Fliegers—they’re Flieger watches for the 21st century and beyond. What makes them so special? Why is this Swiss watchmaker that is over a hundred years old so underrated? And why do I adore them so much? Join me for an in-depth look at the hottest releases of 2020 and possibly 2021, and prepare to explore new horological worlds with Fortis.
