For 2022 they have left Earth again, now with a watch designed for a modern era of Space Travelers. The new Fortis Stratoliner range of chronographs are designed with a more approachable extraterrestrial experience in mind, one aboard the Virgin Galactic Flights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe uniquely textured Dust Dials feature very flat surfaces, for a striking appearance, with unexpected bands of color, each syncing to a portion of the Virgin Galactic Flight Experience. The blue wedge on the hour sub-dial records the 60 - 90 minute climb. The blue arc along the edge of dial is for the boost, 60 - 90 seconds of rapid propulsion up into space at up to 3.5x the speed of sound. Lastly, a 15-minute arc on the minute counter tracks one’s time in zero-G.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeeping the theme alive, the 41mm steel case of the Fortis Stratoliner has some space-age detailing. Kinked out lugs provide unexpected lines and a strong frame. Pump pushers with a unique collar shape ache to be pressed like a launch button. A rubber inlay along the bezel indicates it’s not afraid of turbulence. All finished in a utilitarian but elegant brushed texture. All version of the Stratoliner are available on either leather straps, or a drop lug steel bracelet with a block link shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowering the Stratoliner is the WERK 17, a new proprietary chronograph caliber. A Swiss-made 60-hour, column-wheel chronograph, this power house was designed for space and tested in the stratosphere. Fortis teamed up with the Swedish Space Corporation to test their new caliber in the harsh conditions of the stratosphere, guaranteeing their capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fortis","offers":[{"title":"Blue Japan \/ Aviator Strap","offer_id":39851145396290,"sku":"F2340017","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue Japan \/ Block Bracelet","offer_id":39851145363522,"sku":"F2340010","price":5650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White Dust \/ Aviator Strap","offer_id":39789057409090,"sku":"F2340014","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White Dust \/ Block Bracelet","offer_id":39789057376322,"sku":"F2340006","price":5650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cool Gray \/ Aviator Strap","offer_id":39789057474626,"sku":"F2340015","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cool Gray \/ Block Bracelet","offer_id":39789057441858,"sku":"F2340007","price":5650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cosmic Gray \/ Aviator Strap","offer_id":39789057540162,"sku":"F2340016","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cosmic Gray \/ Block Bracelet","offer_id":39789057507394,"sku":"F2340008","price":5650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0014\/6158\/3938\/products\/WHITE_DUST_BRACELET_index.jpg?v=1688577840"},{"product_id":"promaster-altichron","title":"Promaster Altichron","description":"\u003ch3\u003eShips within one to two (1-2) weeks after purchase.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCitizen is no stranger to making watches that can go the distance. In this case, it’s height that matters. The Altichron is a multi-functional watch that slots within the Promaster lineup as the pilot’s choice. The Aqualand and Skyhawk are two other intense tool watches that share its hardcore DNA, but no other watch in the Promaster collection flies as high. The Altichron exists to focus on navigation needs, but it also works as a do-it-all rig.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe case of the Altichron is 47 mm of black DLC-coated titanium, contrasted by the dial with its yellow accents. An aperture around the center of the dial in conjunction allows the metric altimeter to measure between 1,000 and 32,000 ft. At 9 o’clock is the second sub-altimeter. The two pushers on the left side of the case activate other functions, including an electronic compass. A date complication can be found at 3 o’clock.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Promaster Altichron is powered by Citizen’s proprietary solar movement: Eco Drive.

A plastic strap keeps things wearable and comfortable, and the screw-back caseback ensures 200 m of water resistance (according to Citizen, good for swimming, showering, or snorkeling).
