Fortis Vagabond: A masterpiece for globetrotters
The Fortis Vagabond is an impressive new development from the traditional Swiss brand Fortis, which is known for its innovative and robust tool watches. Since its foundation in 1912, Fortis has repeatedly presented watches that not only impress with their aesthetics, but above all with their technical performance and reliability. With the Vagabond, Fortis continues this tradition and presents a watch that stands out for its advanced technology and precise workmanship.


Technical masterpiece: the caliber 13 movement

At the heart of the Vagabond is the manufacture caliber movement 13, which was developed in close collaboration with the renowned movement manufacturer Kenissi. This automatic movement is chronometer-certified and offers the highest precision expected of a watch in this category. With an impressive power reserve of 70 hours, movement 13 ensures that the watch continues to run reliably even after long breaks.
In addition, the movement is equipped with a bidirectional rotor system that is efficiently wound by the wearer's movements. This ensures that the watch is always ready for use in various everyday situations - whether on an airplane, at meetings or on the move. Another technical refinement is the crossbar bridge, which protects the movement from shocks and vibrations, which is particularly beneficial when traveling. A particular highlight of the watch is the integrated GMT complication (and a GMT ring in white gold), which allows the wearer to keep an eye on a second time zone - typically the home time - in addition to the local time.


Fortis: Innovation and tradition

Fortis looks back on a long history of watchmaking that is characterized by technical innovation and the manufacture of watches for extreme conditions. As early as the 1960s, Fortis was a pioneer in the development of automatic wristwatches and is particularly well known for its robust pilot's watches and space watches, which were developed in cooperation with NASA and the Russian Space Agency. This tradition continues in the Vagabond, which reflects this pioneering spirit with its technical features and robust construction.


Robust design: grade 5 titanium

The housing of the Vagabond is made of grade 5 titanium, a material known for its extreme strength and lightness. Titanium not only offers protection against scratches and damage, but also ensures that the watch can be worn effortlessly even in demanding conditions. The combination of angular design and different surface finishes gives the watch a dynamic, modern aesthetic that is convincing in both professional and leisure settings.


Fortis Vagabond: Precision for modern nomads

With the Vagabond, Fortis delivers an ultra-modern watch that meets the technical demands of today. It combines the brand's long tradition with innovative technical features that are particularly invaluable for travelers and adventurers. The combination of the highest level of watchmaking and functionality makes the Vagabond an indispensable companion that impresses with both its precision and its robust design.
