A look at De Bethune: the De Bethune superthread.
In early December, David Zanetta and Denis Flageollet were in Singapore to present the latest creations from De Bethune. I first profiled De Bethune in 2007 when I was deeply impressed after visiting them at Basel. Two years later I am even more amazed by the brilliant creations from the company. De Bethune watches are of a sheer, high quality that is difficult to find elsewhere, coupled with a remarkable penchant for innovation. That is thanks to Denis Flageollet, who together with Vianney Halter and Francois-Paul Journe founded Techniques Horlogères Appliquées (THA) in Saint Croix before going their separate ways. Denis is the resident genius at De Bethune; from what I understand every single De Bethune innovation is his work, even when David conceives of an idea, like the triple pare-chute for instance, Denis is the one who executes it. click here to see the rest of the thread.
