De Bethune DB25 Digitale
This coverage features a discussion with De Bethune's Denis Flageollet and Antoine Pin about the DB25 Digitale and the brand's philosophy on contemporary watchmaking. The DB25 Digitale is presented as a new form embodying De Bethune's approach to building watches for today, moving beyond past masters.
- 42mm Grade 5 titanium case
- Five days of power reserve
The DB25 Digitale features jumping hours, minutes, and De Bethune's spherical moon phase on a blued titanium dial with random guilloché and starry-sky details.
The hand-wound DB2144V3 movement incorporates De Bethune signatures such as the polished titanium deltoid bridge, proprietary titanium-and-gold balance wheel, and a triple pare-chute shock-absorbing system.
Denis Flageollet's philosophy is to use accumulated knowledge to build watches for the present, rather than replicating past watchmakers.
