The Swiss Fortis Flieger F-41 Werk 7 Mission Black Limited Edition F4220030 watch stands out at first glance with its characteristic pilot’s design and distinctive Fortis styling. It offers excellent legibility, robustness and durability. This watch is well suited to both the aircraft cockpit and everyday wear. Fitted with the new in-house Werk 7 movement, this model is available in a limited edition of just 100 pieces worldwide.
The Fortis Flieger F-41 Werk 7 Mission Black Limited Edition F4220030 has a case made of recycled stainless steel with a DLC treatment, complemented by a rubber and nylon strap. Inside the case is the Swiss mechanical in-house Fortis WERK 7 movement (made for Fortis in collaboration with the La Joux-Perret manufacture) with automatic winding. It runs at a frequency of 28800 vibrations per hour, has 24 jewels and, above all, an extended power reserve of 70 hours. The movement also has a hacking function (stopping the seconds hand when setting the time) and can be wound manually using the crown. A practical date display is located at 3 o’clock. The bidirectional rotating GMT bezel allows the time to be read in another time zone.
The Werk 7 movement is designed for maximum shock resistance while maintaining maximum accuracy. Its balance wheel regulation system is adapted for this purpose, based on a principle first introduced by Patek Philippe. Durability is also enhanced by a special balance bridge with two-point fixing, which makes the watch more resistant to shocks and minimises the chance of damage to the movement during intense activity.
The highly legible dial is protected by a sapphire crystal, which is highly resistant to scratches. An anti-reflective coating on both sides ensures excellent legibility even in direct sunlight. Legibility in the dark and in poor lighting conditions is provided by SuperLuminova luminescence on the hands and indices. Under UV light, the Synchroline® feature is visible at 12 o’clock, helping pilots synchronise the time with their colleagues to within ±5 seconds. This model has a water resistance of 200 m, making it suitable for greater contact with water, such as swimming or diving to approximately 20 metres. Water resistance is supported by a screw-down crown with a triple-gasket system (FKM Triple-Gasket System).
Personal delivery: For this model, we offer personal delivery of the watch by the brand representative in Prague and the Central Bohemian Region. If you are interested, please add a note to your order and we will contact you. More information here.

The Swiss brand Fortis fully fulfills the meaning of its name, which means "strong" in Latin. It is synonymous with durability, robustness and reliability. Its purely mechanical watches serve professional pilots well, can be used underwater and have even served cosmonauts in space! In the years 1994-2019, Fortis watches were the official equipment of cosmonauts of the space agency Roskosmos. However, the foundations of Fortis' journey into space were already laid in 1961, when the founder's son Rolf Vogt showed the Fortis Spacematic AR (All Risks) watch to NASA astronauts. It was not until 1994 that the Official Cosmonauts Chronograph model looked into open space as part of the preparatory work for the historic connection of the American space shuttle Atlantis with the Russian MIR station.
Fortis is currently working with the Austrian Space Forum as the official timekeeper for the AMADEE Mars Mission simulation. From 2021, the Swedish Space Corporation became the official partner of Fortis in the testing and development of a purely space watch Fortis, where the stratospheric tests of the Werk 17 movement will be of particular interest.
The Fortis brand was founded in Grenchen, Switzerland in 1912 by Mr. Walter Vogt and, in addition to the already mentioned space successes, it has also achieved many other interesting milestones. In 1926, Fortis, in collaboration with the inventor of the first automatic movement, John Harwood, recorded the world's first serial production of a self-winding mechanical watch! Fortis introduced one of the world's first waterproof watches in 1940. Since 2018, its lifelong fan Jupp Philipp has become the owner of the Fortis brand.
