Εδώ και 3 χρόνια η Fortis βρίσκεται υπό,νέα ιδιοκτησία.
Μέσα σε αυτά τα 3 χρόνια ο,νέος ιδιοκτήτης έχει καταφέρει τα εξής.
Πλήρης ανανέωση όλη της, σχεδόν, γκάμας της εταιρίας.
In house μηχανισμός, μέσα στους 2,3 καλύτερους μηχανισμούς της αγοράς.
Δοκιμασμένος μηχανισμοί στη στρατόσφαιρα, όχι σε εργαστήρια.
Κορυφαία υλικά κατασκευής,ανακυκλωσιμο ατσάλι.
Και,για όσους δεν το ξέρουν,το μπρασελε της Fortis ,το οποίο το εχει ονομάσει block bracelet, είναι το καλύτερο στο κόσμο στο είδος του..
Προσωπικά,παρήγγειλα το νέο novonaut σε μπλε.

Η Fortis το έχει ονομάσει block bracelet.Τα κομμάτια του μπρασελε, είναι από ολόκληρο κομμάτι ατσάλι,με αποτέλεσμα να μην έχουν καμμια ανοχή μεταξύ τους τα κομμάτια
Νιώθεις σαν να φορας ένα ολόκληρο κομμάτι ατσάλι στο χέρι σού.

Δεν κατάλαβα τίποτα... Και πραγματικά φαίνεται πολύ ενδιαφέρον. Τελικά πως λειτουργεί αυτό το μπρασελέ?

Δεν θα το έλεγα πως λειτουργεί,δηλαδή δεν είναι θέμα λειτουργίας, αλλά θέμα κατασκευαστικο.
Θα σε παραπέμψω στο review της σελίδας Fratello που σε συνδυασμό με τις εικόνες, εξηγεί πολύ καλύτερα όσα αντέγραψα εγώ εδω .

Με μία διαγώνια ανάγνωση πάλι δεν βρήκα τις πληροφορίες για το μπρασελέ.
Πάντως παραπονάκια για τον όγκο και το βάρος.
Θα 'χει ενδιαφέρον να το δούμε στον καρπό σου!

The new bracelet and straps

I had a chance to try the different watches on the bracelet and straps for the full experience. On the bracelet, these are big, heavy pieces. We weighed the Legacy Edition, and it came in at an impressive 225 grams. While the 42 × 15mm case plays a substantial role in that, the bracelet also adds a lot of weight. The three-row Block bracelet is impressive in every respect. It is heavy yet flexible and feels super solid. The clasp does too, and it features a slide mechanism for micro-adjustment. On top of that, it closes with a firm click to give you an immediate feeling of wearing a capable tool watch.

I have to give Fortis a huge compliment because all the different elements seem to be of incredibly high quality. And that not only goes for the bracelet. The Hybrid straps are awesome too. They are firm, which helps to balance the substantial weight of the watch, while at the same time being super comfortable. Additionally, the blue model looks very on the strap, making it the trio’s most lively model.

Βασικά έπρεπε να διαβάσω γενικότερα για τα 3 row bracelets οπότε κατάλαβα τί εννοούσες. Να πω την αλήθεια πιστεύω ότι σε μερικούς ίσως να μην βολέψει.
Βέβαια κοντός ψαλμός αλληλούια Περιμένουμε το δικό σου hands on....

Fortis Watches reboots its iconic Novonaut Chronograph, the cosmonaut’s answer to the Omega Speedmaster

In the grand universe of men’s watches, there’s a niche that belongs to the brave, the bold, and the cosmic adventurers among us. These timepieces are more than mere fashion statements; they’re works of mechanical artistry, precision instruments, and often, historical relics. After all, who doesn’t want to own a watch that’s good enough for space?

You likely know the story of the Omega Speedmaster. Known as the “moon watch,” this classic timepiece has a storied history with NASA astronauts (and the organization itself). The Omega Speedmaster Professional is one of several watches that NASA has deemed qualified for spaceflight and is the only one qualified to go outside of the spacecraft.

Of course, NASA isn’t the only program to send people into space. In 1994, Fortis introduced the Official Cosmonauts Chronograph, and it became (perhaps not surprisingly, given its name) the first official watch of the Russian Space Agency. It regularly flew on missions for nearly a decade until the Fortis B-42 Official Cosmonauts Chronograph replaced it. Now, twenty years later, the relaunch of the Novonaut Chronograph is proving that some legends never fade.

The Novonaut’s stellar resurgence
The Fortis Novonaut Chronograph has a case diameter of 42mm, making it a watch that commands attention without being overly ostentatious. The sleek case is constructed from recycled stainless steel, a nod to Fortis’s commitment to sustainability.

The Novonaut doesn’t shy away from depth, boasting a water resistance of 200 meters. Whether you’re exploring the cosmic abyss or diving into earthly waters, this watch has your back. One of the standout features of the Novonaut is its bidirectional Sirius Bezel. Made of polished ceramic, it’s not just a rugged accessory; it’s also equipped with SuperLuminova markings. This means that even in the darkest reaches of space (or your local dive spot), you won’t lose track of time.

The Novonaut’s sapphire crystal, complete with an anti-reflective coating on both sides, is your window into the cosmos. It’s a barrier against scratches and a portal to the intricate dance of gears and springs inside. Flip the watch over, and you’ll discover a smoked sapphire case back, providing a glimpse of the watch’s beating heart. It’s a design choice that adds an extra layer of intrigue to this cosmic timepiece.

Crown & pushers: The unsung heroes
Watches for men are often defined by their bold design choices, but it’s the subtle details that truly set them apart. The Novonaut features a screw-down crown with a triple gasket system, ensuring that it remains watertight and dependable in any environment.

The pushers on the Novonaut are the key to its chronograph functionality. They’re not just there for show; they’re designed to start, stop, and reset the chronograph with precision. For those who demand accurate timekeeping, these pushers are your trusty companions.

Dial & hands: A splash of cosmic color
The Novonaut boasts a stunning cobalt blue or deep black dial with a sunburst and grooved totalizer pattern. It’s a visual spectacle, and it’s made all the more impressive by the applied SuperLuminova X1 Lumicast numerals. Whether you’re exploring the cosmos or simply navigating your way through a dimly lit room, the Novonaut’s dial ensures that you’re never in the dark.

Whether you’re exploring the cosmos or simply navigating your way through a dimly lit room, the Novonaut’s dial ensures that you’re never in the dark.


The luminous hour and minute hands are not only functional but also elegant, and they add a touch of sophistication to the watch’s overall design. The stop second hand and counter pointer in Berlac fluor orange provide a striking contrast against the blue or black canvas, making for a visually captivating experience.

But what truly sets the Novonaut apart is its self-winding Column Wheel Manufacture Chronograph, lovingly dubbed WERK 17. This is where the Novonaut proves that it’s not just a pretty face. The stratosphere-tested movement is a testament to Fortis’s commitment to precision and durability. This self-winding marvel boasts a power reserve of 60 hours, ensuring that it’ll keep ticking even during extended cosmic journeys.

The verdict
Upon close examination, it’s evident that Fortis has crafted a robust and intentionally hefty tool watch, a characteristic that aligns with the brand’s signature style. This timepiece appears poised to withstand a considerable amount of wear and tear, making it a practical choice even for hypothetical space voyages.

Fortis has successfully breathed new life into the Novonaut’s design language, infusing it with a contemporary and fresh aesthetic. For enthusiasts of the original Novonaut seeking a modern, and perhaps more dependable, upgrade, Fortis has certainly delivered a compelling option.
