Nice shot. I like the red and gold contrasting with that beautiful chrono.

Wow - a new world has opened to me after finding this forum. Have been going through the whole Fortis part and the pictures in this thread are awesome! I have a lot of reading to be done.

Fortis B-42 Diver Automatic Chrono 640.10.141

If I remember correctly, this particular model has been discontinued.

I spoke to Fortis HQ and the helpful chap will talk to the workshop to see if they can "knock one up" with a blue bezel

My c.1950 Fortis Performance, I don't know a lot about it, other than it's got a solid 18k gold case and is very special to me since it used to belong to my grandfather who apparently received it as a gift from the Sultan of Brunei for his work as an engineer in the construction industry!! (Apologies for the crap pics, especially the one showing the movement, they don't the watch justice!) Movement appears to be an ETA 2522, does that sound right? It's difficult to see the stamp due to it's location under the balance wheel.

I'll let the pics do the talking!
