Hi all,
Some days ago I went for a mini watch tour in Geneva, first boutique I paid a visit was De Bethune
As usual Pierre who runs the boutique was super kind, and I had a wonderful experience, with the opportunity to try:
DB28GS, De Bethune interpretation of how a sport watch should look like, for me at least simply beautiful... In both short and long lugs, with a preference for the short ones due to my wrist size
And then the new total blue DB28, simply breathtaking...
What do you think?
Ciao and thanks in advance to those who will participate
Luca

The all blue version is too much...
...and the bezel is more purple than blue, thereby ruining the homogeneity trying to be achieved. Otherwise, the DB28GS is a fabulous watch that's too often overlooked in favour of the usual brands' offerings instead.
The titanium does that
- whenever it gets touched, the color changes slightly - you can notice the lugs are very light blue - lighter than the rest of the case. It must be very hard to keep that watch spotless and thusly the original color. Ondrej
The first one is my favorite among these three.
I am afraid to get rid of the blue quite quickly. Best, Nicolas
Thanks...
To all, but Bill your Bravo is not yet (and considering the retail price also for "some" time to come) deserved... The pictures I shared were made in the boutique, while dreaming... Ciao Luca
