In contrast to the beautiful blue, the dial features applied metallic indices and matching hands; each features a luminescent inlay. Replacing the 3 o&#8217;clock hour marker is a date aperture, it helps to boost the functionality of the timepiece. Surrounding the dial is a 40mm case made of recycled stainless steel; its stainless steel case back features an ultra engraving. Upon the case sits a unidirectional gear bezel; it ensures great safety whilst diving underwater. A high-quality sapphire crystal further emphasises the excellent durability levels that this Fortis possesses. The case also features a screw-down crown with a fkm triple-gasket system, and this is what gives the watch its 300 metre water resistance rating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within this case lies a UW-30 Performance calibre. Standing out with its robust, antimagnetic, gilt Glucydur balance wheel, for outstanding precision, it boasts a 38-hour power reserve. Moreover, this movement has been regulated to chronometer standards, by the Fortis Watchmaker in Grenchen. So not only is it robust, but reliable too. Complementing the dial, and concluding the design of this Marinemaster M-40, is a blue horoizon ultra-flexible rubber strap. Said flexibility guarantees great comfort on the wrist; which is of great importance for both diving and everyday wear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re after a watch that is robust, rugged and ready for flight, then you can\u2019t go wrong with a Fortis.
