Besides Omega and Breitling, Fortis is another watch brand that has been deeply involved in space missions.

It hooks up with the Russians, providing timekeepers for its space missions that birthed the Cosmonauts collection. The Monolith is the newest addition to the family, armed with a hard-coated stainless steel case, high-contrast dial, and reflective coating that render it space travel-ready. To illustrate its credentials, the watch’s case back is embossed with the emblem of the Russian space agency ROSCOSMOS.

Price: S$4,980 (incld GST)

Alvin promises not to be a douche when talking about watches. He may have scoured the Basel and Geneva watch fairs for the past 15 years, and played an instrumental role to the growth of Singapore's pioneering horological and men's lifestyle publications, but the intrepid scribe seeks to learn something new with each story he writes.
