Lot Essay

The present timepiece is numbered 2 of a limited edition of only 5 pieces.

Housed in the iconic DB28 case, the timepiece features De Bethune’s ingenious and highly comfortable ‘floating lugs,’ patented in 2006, which have become a signature of the brand. At the heart of this timepiece is the highly impressive caliber 2115 movement, which delivers a six-day power reserve thanks to its self-regulating twin barrel (patented 2004).

De Bethune
Founded in 2002 by David Zanetta and Denis Flageollet, De Bethune quickly flourished in the watch industry by merging both peerless aesthetic with the latest horological breakthroughs. The deceptively simple elegance of their designs serves well in magnifying the complexity of the materials and processes involved in the creation of their timepieces. As De Bethune crafts an extremely limited amount of timepieces per year, the philosophy of the company has been to create better rather than more, and to draw inspiration from age-old expertise in order to constantly invent the future.

The company won the 2011 'Aiguille D’Or', the highest distinction awarded by Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix) for its DB28 model.
