The Swiss watch Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT PC-7 TEAM Limited Edition COSC F4260004 impresses at first glance with a typical pilot design with the clear signature of the Fortis brand. It is characterised by perfect legibility, robustness and durability. This watch will serve well not only in an aircraft cockpit, but also for everyday wear. This model, made to celebrate 25 years of cooperation between Fortis and the PC-7 Team aviation group, is available in a limited edition of only 100 pieces worldwide. Of these, 20 are reserved for PC-7 Team pilots, so for regular users only 80 pieces are realistically available.
The Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT PC-7 TEAM Limited Edition COSC F4260004 watch has a case made of titanium with DLC treatment, complemented by a strap in a rubber-nylon combination. The package also includes an additional red nylon strap with the PC-7 group logo. Inside the case, the Swiss mechanical Fortis WERK 13 manufacture movement (made for Fortis by Kenissi) works reliably with automatic winding. It runs at a frequency of 28800 vibrations per hour, has 28 jewels and, above all, an extended power reserve of 70 hours. The movement also has a hacking function (stopping the seconds hand when setting) and the option of manual winding via the crown. Travellers will especially appreciate the GMT function - i.e. a second time zone indicator in the form of a fourth hand. In addition, it is a so-called True GMT, where the GMT hand also moves when setting the time and the setting of the main hour hand is then done in one-hour jumps, while the home time on the GMT hand remains unchanged. The bi-directional rotating GMT bezel allows reading the time in an additional time zone. At the 3 o'clock position, there is a practical date display.
The bezel also has a fun function for tracking sobering-up time before the next flight. It is shown by the symbols of an aircraft at 12 o'clock and a cocktail glass at 4 o'clock. This gimmick symbolises the tradition of the last drink before the next flight and captures the playful spirit of the PC-7 Team group.
The movement has COSC certification. Thanks to this, it can bear the designation "Chronometer" and meets the strictest requirements for accuracy. Also worth mentioning is the special balance bridge with two-point fixation, thanks to which the watch is more resistant to shocks and thus the chance of movement damage is minimised even during intense activity.
The perfectly legible dial is protected by a sapphire crystal, which is highly resistant to scratches. The double-sided anti-reflective coating ensures excellent readability even in direct sunlight. Readability in the dark and in poor light conditions is enabled by SuperLuminova luminescence, placed on the hands and indices. Under UV light, the Synchroline® function at the 12 o'clock position is visible, which makes it easier for pilots to synchronise time with their colleagues within ±5 seconds. The water resistance of this model is 200 m, so it can handle greater contact with water, such as swimming or a dive to approx. 20 metres. Water resistance is supported by a screw-down crown.
This limited edition was made in cooperation with the Swiss aerobatic pilot PC-7 Team group. It consists of professional military pilots and several times a year performs demanding aerial aerobatics as part of its show. This group flies NCPC-7 aircraft, which is a Pilatus PC-7 aircraft equipped with a new cockpit. A reference to the PC-7 group is depicted on the caseback and on the nylon strap, which is also included in the package. This unique limited edition was produced in a quantity of 100 pieces.
Personal delivery: For this model, we offer the option of personal delivery (Prague and Central Bohemian Region) of the watch by the brand guarantor. If you are interested, please add a note to the order, 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.
Helveti.cz is an authorized dealer and specialist of the Fortis brand.
