Not only do the entry-level Fortis Spacematics feature three-hand timepieces with the day and date displays, they also offer legible luminescence in darkness.
The Fortis Spacematic with the white dial in particular, has its entire dial coated with SuperLuminova but not the Arabic hour numerals and hour indexes, the hour and minute hands, and the continuous sweep seconds hand.
Once “charged” by light, the dial emits a nice blue afterglow in total darkness, offering a highly legible time-telling capability.
Fortis Spacematic with a white dial (Reference: 623.10.42). It features the day and date displays and comes in a 40mm diameter brushed steel case. It is water-resistant to 100m (10 bar). In darkness, the white dial coated with SuperLuminova emits a blue afterglow in darkness. This newer version replaces reference 623.22.42. It is reasonably-priced at SGD1,650 / MYR4,040 or around US$1,300 / 990 euros / CHF1,200. Note: prices may differ and are approximate. Photo: © Fortis
The Fortis Spacematic with the black dial has SuperLuminova coated on the Arabic hour numerals and hour indexes, and the hour and minute hands. The time-telling capability is therefore more conventional in the dark.

Unlike the previous Spacematics, these two new versions do not come with crown guards.
