My favourite Fortis, love the hands.
Always fancied one of those. Is there enough lume to tell the time easily at night?
I have a non gmt version, i find it takes a few seconds to distinguish between the two different tips of the hands.The lume works well but as you can see, there is not a lot of it due to skeleton hands + small indices..Originally Posted by JDB
Nice watch kubama, your pictures show how effective the ar coatings are on these watches. Think I might get my one out of the box :)
That's really nice. Love the Fortis B42 range but unfortunately lug to lug they're too big for me.

Had the black dial version many years ago, but I have somehow always preferred this one.
Have become very interested in these of late and I can see why, just lovely.
Looks very, very, very nice.
very nice indeed.
If the picture represent what the lume looks like in real life, then I really like it. :P .Originally Posted by kubama
BTW, are the hands painted blue or blued (either heat-treated or chemically)?
As has already been mentioned - great hand set 8)

I saw a used example (this one?) for £800 recently and was soooo very tempted. A beautiful watch and great purchase.
I like this. I have the non gmt chrono version and it is a real treat to take it out of its box and put it on.
I had, and very foolishly let go, the chrono non-GMT version of this. Absolutely brilliant watches and the GMT is just better still. If you have (or can get hold of) a bracelet they are very impressive in themselves.
Keep hold of it! :)
I love the hands. Nice looking watch.
That is a seriously good looking lumeshotOriginally Posted by kubama
too bad that thing is a a bit too big
Really beautifull one, I love the connection of white and blue color. It`s little like modern version of the Marine watch...
Lumi is beautiful...nice watch. But I allways preferred black dial.
I didn't know the Fortis looked so good. The blue markers and hands really make the watch stand out.
Good pictures…….
Oranges goes best with b42 mars limited edition:-)
Very, very nice watch... I like the hands very much! :shock:
