De Bethune DB28 "Aiguille d'Or". Em Novembro de 2011, no Grande Prémio de Relojoaria de Genebra, o modelo DB28 da De Bethune obteve o Ponteiro de Ouro (Aiguille d’Or), o galardão máximo do evento. Para comemorar o êxito, a De Bethune revisita o modelo e declina-o numa edição limitada a 50 exemplares.
Da marca:
The characteristic aesthetic of the DB28 is enriched with a rose gold baguette-shaped insert adorning the minute hand. The distinctive shape of the mirror-polished titanium case, inspired by pocket watches, accentuated by the spherical moon phase and by the silicon/palladium balance, features an exhibition back revealing a finely decorated movement enhanced by gold wheels and a gold hand for the linear power reserve.
These exceptional timepieces feature a pure style in which the taut lines, the exquisite hand-crafted finishes and the slenderness of the case combine with the technical innovations to offer a contemporary expression of the horological art according to De Bethune.
DB28 "Aiguille d'Or" limited edition of 50.
