When it comes to tool watches, few names carry the kind of clout that Fortis does.

And now, the brand is back with something bold, rare, and unapologetically engineered for performance — the new Flieger Werk 7, available in Mission Black or Tactical Green, and each model in each size is limited to just 100 pieces worldwide.

One Watch, Four Ways

Fortis gives collectors a choice — each colour comes in two case sizes, 41mm and 39mm. Whether you lean toward the full-on pilot presence of the 41, or the tighter, more understated 39, there's a version built for your wrist.

In Mission Black, the watch is all stealth: a matte black dial, white numerals and indices, and subtle pops of Fortis’s signature orange. Over on the Tactical Green side, the vibe is more tactical — think modern military, not vintage throwback. Both colourways share a black outer ring housing luminous Brix hour markers and a clean, white minute track. All four variants feature a date window at 3 o’clock, with a black date disc and white print for cohesion.

The Power Inside: Werk 7

At the core of the Flieger Werk 7 is exactly that — the Werk 7, Fortis’s new manufacture calibre built in partnership with La Joux-Perret. It’s not just a new movement — it’s a new standard.

• 70-hour power reserve
• Variable-Inertia Regulation system
• Gunmetal finish with visible movement through the sapphire caseback
• Custom rotor and oversized bridge for added durability

Precision, shock resistance, and sheer endurance — Werk 7 is built for extremes. No surprise then, that this movement was developed with input from the Swiss Air Force.

Strength in Every Detail

The Black models take toughness a step further with a Swiss Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, delivering a staggering 4,500 Vickers hardness — that’s 20 times harder than standard steel. The recycled stainless steel case is finished with a mix of brushed and blasted surfaces, giving it a rugged yet refined look. On the wrist, it feels mission-ready, not museum-bound.

Final Thoughts

This isn’t just a limited edition — it’s a locked vault. Every detail, from the colour options to the in-house movement to the ultra-tough case, is dialled in with purpose. Fortis isn’t trying to impress. They’re trying to outlast.

This is more than a pilot’s watch. This is pure pilot power — rebuilt from the ground up.

If you want one, act fast — they won’t stick around.
