What’s new?
Following the successful release of Fortress in 2024, Beda’a went back to the drawing board, dreaming up fresh and exciting ways to present Fortress in a manner fit to the spirit of the brand, ever evolving and ever creating.
This time, the eastern Arabic / Hindu numerals were replaced with the more Global and widespread Arabic numerals, making the watch more accessible. Rather incredibly, the new numerals were designed by internationally renowned artist Wissam Shawkat, who worked tirelessly with the Beda’a team to create a visually striking dial that refreshes the design of the Fortress with wild, flowy numerals that contrast the strong and sharp lines of the case.
The new dial features a pattern of rays emitting from the center to meet the enamel rectangular index as well as the set of new numerals as imagined by Wissam Shawkat.
Three colors will be offered; a metallic gray, classic and reserved, a white for a cleaner look, and a deep blue sure to turn heads.
Also new are the strap options offered. As standard, fortress will be offered with matching epsom leather straps. However, alligator straps with a different cut that extenuates the strength of Fortress, are also offered.
A “case” for strength.
Drawing inspiration from the robust and intricate architectural features of a fortress, this
collection embodies strength and affinity to the resilient.
At the heart of the Fortress collection lies a unique design ethos, The watch combines its focuses on essential time only functions, with a visually striking design to make up for a subtle yet unique timepiece, all powered by a modified mechanical movement (Sellita SW1000) engineered to achieve a thin profile worthy of a dress watch.
