Flieger f-43 bicompax
Ref.: F4240004
The Fortis Flieger F-43 Bicompax nails that vintage pilot look with zero pretension. Its matte black dial and dual sub-dials (also available in other colors) keep things clean and classic, while the 43mm stainless steel case brings just enough presence to feel confident, not flashy. Automatic movement keeps everything precise, and bright lume means you won’t squint after sunset. It’s the kind of watch that pairs perfectly with a bomber jacket, aviators, and lazy weekends.
