Pre-Owned Fortis Stratoliner S-41 Cool Grey on Bracelet

Fortis is one of the few watchmakers in the world that remains, to this day, an independent company with a rich history in Swiss watchmaking. Fortis was founded in 1912 by Walter Vogt. In 1926, Fortis, in collaboration with watch inventor John Harwood, created the first automatic watch to be put into production, thus setting the stage for the likes of many major brands we see on the market today, such as Rolex, Omega, and more. Later, in 1940, Fortis pioneered the way for one of the first water-resistant watches ever built.

The all-new WERK 17 movement is a self-winding single column-wheel Chronograph purpose-built for space travel and tested in the Stratosphere. The WERK 17 boasts an incredible 60-hour power. The 41mm case is composed of recycled stainless steel construction with an exhibition case back. The Stratoliner S-41 features 200m of water resistance and a sapphire crystal with dual anti-reflective coating. The Cool Grey dial features three sub-registers at the 12, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, with a date window at the 3 o'clock position.

This Fortis Stratoliner S-41 Cool Grey includes the original outer box sleeve, the warranty card, the owner’s manual, the serial stickers, the hang tag, and the original Fortis stainless steel bracelet.
