Full-Cataloguing
- Denis Flageollet, co-founder and master watchmaker of De Bethune, approaches horology through mathematics and science rather than tradition alone; since 2002, the manufacture has developed over 30 in-house calibers and registered more than a dozen patents, establishing itself as one of the most innovative forces in contemporary watchmaking.
- The present DB27 “Titan Hawk” in titanium is visually captivating, featuring a polished titanium case paired with a warm salmon dial accented in blue; the dial’s three-dimensional architecture, enhanced by brushed and polished microlight engraving and concentric circles, gives it remarkable depth and vitality, while the signature spring-loaded floating lugs ensure exceptional comfort on the wrist.
- Powering the watch is the fully in-house caliber S233, incorporating De Bethune’s hallmark innovations including a self-regulating twin barrel, silicon and white-gold balance, triple pare-chute shock protection, titanium/platinum rotor, silicon escape wheel, and a six-day power reserve; produced in just 22 pieces, this reference stands as a rare and highly collectible expression of Flageollet’s vision. Numbered 007 and accompanied by its “book-style” fitted presentation box, this example represents a highly attractive addition to any discerning collection.
