In a striking recalibration where art and engineering converge, De Bethune has recently unveiled the DB28xs Yellow Tones, a mesmerizing new iteration of its iconic timepiece. For the discerning watch enthusiast, it covers every area of elegance that die-hard collectors will appreciate.

Exceptional movement complements this sophisticated timepiece

This 39mm marvel merges a case of fiery-yellow titanium — realized through an exclusive, state-of-the-art thermal oxidation process — with a sophisticated in-house movement. Far from merely resizing, this creation represents a complete aesthetic recalibration, showcasing the manufacturer’s unwavering pursuit of perfection through a captivating tone-on-tone design that delivers unparalleled horological performance.

A luxury timepiece housed within a wearable work of art

The exterior is intricate and intense, a harmonious blend of microlight engraving and mirror polishing on grade 5 titanium, houses the equally impressive in-house Calibre DB2115V14. This hand-wound movement is a further demonstration of De Bethune patented innovations, showcasing a titanium balance with white gold weights and a unique flat hairspring for remarkable precision. Its heart is protected by a triple pare-chute system, while an optimized twin barrel provides up to six days of power reserve. The iconic floating lugs and an extra-supple alligator strap ensure the watch wears with exceptional, lightweight comfort.
