Great shots Oliver

The Debethune collection was so strong this year (and its not even Basel!) that it is hard to choose... OK not that difficult... the new Digitale and the grey dialed QP... WOW!!!
Thanks for reminding me...
Cheers
Andrew

Great post Oliver

and your shots are superb as always. GEO
I see the "evolution" here....

"primitive"
By: small-luxury-world : February 4th, 2014-10:57
I would love that piece and I think it is far from being primitive, my friend. The De Bethune DNA was already there and that is only one reason why I love that brand - they stick to their own approach of watchmaking/design. It needs guts to do so and is r...
Thank you, Oliver!

.. to me, this is the "basic" three hands watch, white guilloche dial, three blued hands.... what more would one need as a basic watch? Wonderful watch - I asked them how many they ended up making this model - the answer was "27". Wow. Lucky me! And those...
This brand is really amazing...

and you pictures honor them at the highest point. The new DB28 Digitale seems different and so beautiful. The live experience must be very interesting. I always liked the DBS but was not very keen on the Dream watch version because of the heavy bottom cas...
"DB28 Digitale" & "DW 5"
By: small-luxury-world : February 4th, 2014-11:07
The first is a beauty, even when it is one the big side. More to come ... pictures & thougths - some time soon. The latter is just perfect like it is; for what it is - a piece of art. I was afraid that it would be bigger and so I was pleased when I sa...

I will refrain from additional comment..as you all know what I think?
By: moc : February 4th, 2014-12:59
Whats amazing is the capability of coming out with so many novelties EVERY YEAR,actually even twice a year. Digitale…wow! DW1 ….well lets recap a bit about this piece..here you have the possibility to regulate the watch to the second,according to your lif...

you are tempted - even when I didn´t like it that much in the past. Those early DBs are growing on me ... :-) Thanks! Oliver

By: small-luxury-world : February 8th, 2014-04:45
and especially the DB25T is just so understated & sophisticated at the same time. There is a lot of spirit from the golden era of pocket watches without missing modern and unique features. If only I could afford one ;-) The new DB25QP is very nice and...
DB15 and dial finish
By: Mark in Paris : February 9th, 2014-05:08
Hey Oliver, it's the first time I realize the dials of BD25QP vs DB15 are not finished the same. I thought the dials were the same. Maybe I have a preference for the DB25QP's... Thanks for the addtional pics.
I love it too.
By: Mark in Paris : February 10th, 2014-05:44
The DB25 case, plus the balanced dial layout.... And yes I thought they were all the same, ie "guillochet". Seems I was wrong ;)
There have been so many ...

(even minor) changes in the past that it was almost impossible to track them, at least for me. It felt almost like you can´t place your order without being surprised what the final product looks like. Most of the time it was a good move, but still a surpr...
Thanks Mo

It was great to meet you and share your enthusiasm for De Bethune. Hope to see you again sometime soon.

and thank you for teaching me again and showing me that I'm fool in love :) OK I'll change my mantra in "If Independent then DeBethune!!" Ok now? :) Cheers D
Happy dreaming!

All the best, Oliver :-)
Nice models here, thanks Tim

Thanks for this amazing thread and everybody for sharing! I am in the middle of a full-blown "girl crush" on DB right now and this made me feel a lot better... Glad I'm not the only one!!
Tim, thanks a lot for sharing your pictures ...
By: small-luxury-world : February 10th, 2014-03:11
and passion with us. The DB15QP has the same complication as the DB25QP, but comes with a different movement. I like them both :-) Oliver
DB22 help needed!
By: secretlife : February 14th, 2014-10:38
This is a last ditch effort and I hope I'm not infringing any rules (I'm fairly new to PPro) but here goes: Have been searching for a DB22 in Ti with grey dial (I missed the boat on this one) and figured this would literally be the best place in the world...
