How about some specifics? And always consider the source...;)
The stories were in the Fortis Forum on "another WIS site." :) One was about the replacement of a B-42 screw-down crown with a push-pull crown, and another was about QC issues with a luminous marker. A third story, on a different site, was about a watchmaker who couldn't get Fortis to sell him a part. This watchmaker had purchased parts from Fortis before, then he hit a brick wall. There were other stories, but those are the first few I remember.
Fortis makes some beautiful timepieces, I just want to be very careful with my limited WIS dollars, as their prices are on the high end of my WIS budget.
