More DE BETHUNE from Geneva..
Jan 24, 2015,11:35 AM
The two main novelties have been introduced already but here are a few shots I took in Geneva....
The sporty approach of the new DB28GS is really captivating.
Waterproof for 100 mt,brushed and polished titanium case with integrated rubber strap(a beautiful work in itself)
The microlight decorations of the bridges and the stunning hands make the DB28GS such a fascinating sport watch.I really like it,actually I am totally seduced and....tempted.
Second strong novelty is more an adaptation of an existing model,the DB25T with dead second mechanism and De Bethune Tourbillon.
This new dial has to be seen in the flesh to understand its beauty and sophistication.
It is true that one would assume that a zodiac dial would ave some sort of indication,but its not necessarily true here,the zodiac signs as a decorative element of the dial make perfect sense and do not make me regret further complications on a very complicated watch already.
The idea of an indicator was in the plans though,I had confirmation of that,but still that would have meant losing the deadbeat second.....which I am not sure of.
I took the chance to shoot some last years novelty that really stand out and show De Bethune mastery at its best.....
The mighty DB29 Maxichrono tourbillon
The best modern chronograph I ve ever seen.....If only I could...
And last....I am loosing sleep over this enamel beauty,simple but sophisticated at the same time,strong but refined...elegant.....could be made for a Prince...
A beautiful watch.....I am seriously in danger with this one......hard to resist such a beauty.
Yours
