Fortis B-42 GMT 3 time zone

I have had my Fortis B-42 GMT 3 time zone watch for about a month now. What a great watch! This is my first Fortis, but certainly not my last! Cheers, Bill P.

It`s one tough watch, very sharp looking.
I saw it couple day`s ago in shopping mall and I was really impressed.
Great choice, and for next purchase, check out chronograph models with Lemania 5100 inside!

I like that GMT; I also like the titanium chrono with the dive bezel, i thinks it called a Cosmonaute chrono or something ...

Bill, That watch looks awesome!

I love that watch!

Fortis is one of the most solid watches out there.

Thanks guys.... I really am glad I got this Fortis and it was in large part thanks to ParisDakarBMW (Paul) and his good counsel. Cheers, Bill P.

Bill great watch, I have a B-42 on hold at the moment. I need at times to quickly view three time zones for work. Will be picking it up in two weeks.

How is the accuracy over a 24 hour period, is it within COSC specs? Appreciate the feed back.

Cheers Jules
