            Yes, I'm one and the same. I remember you too from the WUS Sinn Forum. And yes, this Fortis comes with a L5100 movement like the Sin 142 that both of us own.

            Like I posted here earlier I stumbled upon this site by accident. Pretty neat forum.

              Welcome on board Henry T, great to c u here and looks like u r someone who appreciates inner beauty of your timepieces.R u just into timepieces with L5100 movement???

              Do u also own the Omega Speedmaster Pro 376.0822 which also has the L5100. Some consider that Omega Speedmaster Pro 376.0822 the Grail of all who comes to L5100.

              Anyway,I'm new to L5100 and really can't get used to the "ZzZzZzZz" sound produced by the Lemania 5100 movement. It's weird.. ...

                I sold the Speedy Pro (manual wind 1861 movement) to a friend, but still keeping the vintage Speedy Pro MKIII. Not sure if the movements are L5100 derived.

                Sold the one on the right, but still keeping the one on the left:


                This watch is very photogenic.


                Also sold this Speedmaster day/date:


                Sold this Broad Arrow:


                Still keeping this Railmaster:

                    Henry T, u do have a nice collection there. More of the Chrono watches, do like your Omega Speedmaster Olymics edition with red fonts. Nice...

                    Did u try getting the Fortis B-42 Cosmonaut Chrono Ti Carbon dial? IT's with L5100 movement. Most overseas collectors think that that is the best Buck one can get from Fortis.

                        No, the B-42 case is not a design I like.

                          I like that B42, in fact almost bought it many times but always held back for some reason or another.

                          Luckily its easily available here, even the LE that you mentioned. Saw it at Emotus, Watches of Switzerland and the raffles link watch shop (dunno whats the name).

                          Anyone whats the list price? I think theres a 30% discount right, but can get more if you know the AD.

                            What's the price of the B42? Saw the advertisement on today's paper. Quite a hip watch winder included....
