With De Bethune presentation box, certificate, product literature and corrector.

A relatively newcomer to the horological world, De Bethune was founded in Switzerland in 2002 by Denis Flageollet and David Zanetta. One of the most unique developments by De Bethune, which is also featured in this present lot, is the three-dimensional moon phase display. It is a sphere that is made in equal halves of platinum and blued steel, and rotates on its own axis. Its mechanism is so precise that it would take 122 years for its degree of error to be significant.
