Fortis is rounding off its new Fortis Spacematic line with an alarm. The F2001 calibre marks the first movement to combine the functions of an automatic chronograph and a mechanical alarm. Two barrels ensure that the movement and the alarm operate independently of each other, making this micro-mechanics feat possible. The harmonious ring of the alarm sounds for about 25 seconds if neither interrupted nor switched off with the button at 8 o’clock.
