Congrats!
I feel the same way about De Bethune; although mine is a more modest "garden variety" DB27. Their particular balance of aesthetic and technical, as well as modern and traditional, is something very special. I love the comfort, the performance, and the fact that it flies completely under the radar... Thank you for highlighting the tang buckle, which is my favourite feature and encapsulates (to me) the essence of DB - the fact that it's signed on the inside says everything!
De Bethune DB28"Commande Special",another slice of heaven..
Yes it was obvious,all of you guessed correctly,what else could have committed for if not for another De Bethune. My love for the brand is no mystery,I still consider De Bethune amongst the best independent brands,definitely my clear favourite. I love man...
Unleashed.
Yes, this is how DB knows to do the work and your guidelines seem to have given birth to something gorgeous. I also think the DB28 is particularly well rendering the brand's DNA and , aside of your Starysky, this watch is a fantastic base choice. I notice...
Dear Mark,thank you so much..
as a De Bethune lover and owner,I treasure your comment a lot! Yes the choice of the bridges is a good one I believe,it gives so much sleekness to the overall look. I just spent the day with it on the wrist and it feels fantastic,took more pictures….its h...

I agree..
De Bethune is a mix of flamboyant look but in a way always understated,no much text in their watches….I believe they know their quality, their personality is so strong that they are very …confident…..rightfully so I believe. Thank you for your nice words....
You made my day, Mo. I already imagine the photosession on this one. :)
Veeery happy for you. Yes, this one is highly desirable. If I had to buy De Béthune, I would hesitate a lot between these 2 of yours. You have taste, they have talent, well, you were both made to have a deal! :) Best, my friend. That is a great day, today...
My dearest,,it will be my pleasure to lend it..
You give justice to my watches…. I can t wait for you to see it,you will love it… thanks for chiming in…I value your opinion a lot as you know… Mo

Dear Alex,cheers..
Yes I like this version a lot,as it mixes daring look and technology at the same time….definitely a conversational piece.. Mo

congratulations!
loved that "pimped" db28. Personally, i prefer the tourbillon, but that one is very nice too. Wear it in good health
Hi Fricks..
The tourbi is very nice….nevertheless the "simple version"is more of my likings…I can't resist that moon indicator… So are you ready for your De Bethune?Still hesitating? Mo
i visited the boutique in Geneva...
... still hesitating :) Not totally convinced yet. They are still in the category of the piece i can appreciate, but without pulling the trigger. Let's wait and see how that will grow
Understand.... WAit and see next year....
Different attitude from patek but not so different after all... I am sure you will get there... Mo
Yeah I'm back,
I was looking at your pics again and have 2 elements to talk about (yeah...you see you're not the only one who talks a lot...): - Can you tell me what is that performance indicator you're talking about, is it new or did I missed it form other DB28 I saw ?...
Is it the game of the 357 differences ?
They are so different that you won't need to wear any other watch from now on. Mark
After this shoot you kindly presented
there is only one sorry two questions 1. What's next? Tourbillon maybe? ;) 2. Do you have to curse or praise PPro :) Godspeed my friend Yours D
I curse everyday Puristpro...

Late to the party...
