Cool watch! I had no idea you owned a Fortis. I had one years ago, a B-42 Cosmonaut which was sold to my brother. The crown tube broke and he can't seem to find a watchmaker with original parts supply, even through Fortis.

Yes! Got this many years ago, when I started the serious addiction. I like it because it is simple, clean, lightweight...just a nice watch to wear.

Funny to hear. I have always sent this to Fortis Service in the US; pretty good customer service. Do you want me to send the info?

Cheers!

I am glad to see you have your priorities in order, coffee and shoe shine before anything else.
