The Fortis Stratoliner is a watch for space tourists

[@x201t]

The circle 0:46 in the graph is so ridiculous as if the space ship travels back in time.

[@TalkingTimepieces]

Good point

[@SpaceG95]

The "circle" is for scrubbing off reentry speed

[@x201t]

@@SpaceG95 the X axis is a time axis. Not speed.

Fortis makes great watches

I saw the Stratoliner in white dial when it was first released. I liked the cleanliness of the dial and placement of everything, it also looked pretty cool That said, I have not pursued it because I somehow simply lost interest in it Great video as always Alix, cheers brother 👍

It is a cool presentation, thanks for the kind words!

[@adamselene5957]

Thank you. I really like the pebbled face. I absolutely LOVE chronos in general and will watch ANY review of them or discussion of them whatsoever. Quick question: do you have any experience with the Seiko Prospex SBDS001 FlightMaster Automatic Ti Chronograph? It is the epitome' of perfect chronos (IMO). Would love your take on it if you ever had the chance to review it. There are only a few of them around.

[@TalkingTimepieces]

I think it is a cool chunky piece, and you rarely see a power reserve in a tool watch. I also like the compass bezel, reminding us a watch with hands can help you find the compass points.

As much as I really like Fortis watches, this one doesn't speak to me. For some reason I feel like this dial looks too empty and paper like. I don't know, why, but this is just my personal opinion.

[@TalkingTimepieces]

The risks of going with a "cleaner" design.

[@Butters-s4i]

I actually have to agree. Fortis will be my next watch purchase (thanks to Alix), but it won't be this one.

This watch is somewhat nice but way too overpriced for what it essentially is

[@TalkingTimepieces]

A rugged column-wheel chronograph?

[@Lorenzo-bl2ss]

@@TalkingTimepieces Yes, I think so. I do like Fortis and I do own a 25 year old Flieger Pro watch, which I still like and wear from time to time. But it is a different company now with a different philosophy and ownership it seems to me. As far as I could read online, the caliber that they use for this chrono is essentially a slightly customized LaJoux Perret and not so much "inhouse manufacture" as they claim it to be. But maybe that is just talk. Column wheel is nice but I'd rather see that in a more classic chrono let's say by Glashütte than in such a toolish Sinn style watch. And the price---with 5k you are indeed not far from the entry Glashütte league...and that is far beyond Fortis capacities, sorry

@Lorenzo-bl2ss all good points
