Another episode of the Independent Thinking Show for @FifthWrist Radio.

In this episode, hosts Roman (@TimesRomanAU) and Claus (@tapir_ffm) sit down with Jupp Philipp owner and CEO of the independent Swiss watch brand Fortis (@fortiswatches).

Join us for a fun conversation about the long and storied history of Fortis Watches, their proud tradition of specialising in making tool watches; collaborations with pilots, space agencies and partnering with scientists doing Mars exploration missions.

Most excitingly, we get a glimpse into the direction Jupp is leading Fortis to, since taking over the brand in 2020.

We even mention our favourite watchmaking genius Mr Paul Gerber, who has designed watch movements for Fortis in the past!

It’s a really fun conversation ! Hope you enjoy it too.
