Fortis has expanded its Novonaut N-42 collection with three new models featuring fully luminous dials, a departure from the previous dark dial configurations. These watches retain the core design and specifications of the N-42 line while introducing a striking aesthetic and practical enhancement for low-light visibility.
- 42mm stainless steel case
- 200 meters water resistance
- 60-hour power reserve
- Price: €5,950 / US$5,950 / £5,950
The new TR series features fully luminous LumiCast X1 base dials, a significant visual and functional update from previous Novonaut models.
The watches are available with bezel inserts and matching straps in Halo Black, Halo Blue, or Halo Green.
The Fortis Werk 17 movement, based on a La Joux-Perret caliber, is an automatic column-wheel chronograph with manual winding, hacking, 28,800 vph, and a custom traversing bridge for robustness.
The hybrid strap combines FKM rubber lining with a textile outer layer, balancing the 115g watch head effectively.
The dial's off-white base color prevents a sterile appearance, and the sub-dials follow the Valjoux 7750 layout with a day-date at 3 o'clock.
