In Response To: Fortis ()

: I am considering adding a Fortis B42 to my
: collection. I dont really know too much
: about their reputation and position in the
: hierarchy of watch companies. Anyone have
: any opinions?

In my opinion Fortis offers good value for money. The watches are not CHRONOMETERS, so if you donīt mind that, its a good choice. I think in the hierarchy Fortis is somewhere in the middle.
The B42 is a very large watch, so try it on your wrist before you by it.
