Brandon Skinner introduces the De Bethune DW5 Cempasuchil Unique Piece Maestri'Art, a timepiece that pushes the boundaries of horological artistry. This article delves into how De Bethune, a brand recognized for its aesthetic and mechanical inventiveness, continues to challenge conventional watch design with its Dream Watch collection. Skinner's post highlights a unique piece that, while perhaps not for everyone, exemplifies the brand's commitment to creating truly exceptional and thought-provoking watches.

If I’m being honest, when my close my eyes and think DeBethune, its not of the watches from the Dream Watch collection. As with all DeBethune, I think they are very aesthetically interesting and mechanically inventive... a brand that deserves more accolades than they currently receive. I just stumbled upon an article from Watch Collecting Lifestyle with a new Unique Piece of the DW5. A true piece of art, as if the “normal” DW5 wasn’t that already. Not for everybody, probably not for me either per se, but very cool and something that I am glad exists... Enjoy!

Either he’s dressed head to toe in Versace

Or maybe in all black like John Wick with only his watch as his color inspiration?

I could argue he’s too cool for a Carl F. Bucherer as well

It’s obvious to me a UR210 would work quite nicely for Mr. Wick
