Is it coming back a second time? 😊
So which Reverso did you go for in the end?
Gym companion
I was a little hesitant at first but personal time can be hard to come by and its that much more enjoyable with a fun watch. The DB28 has been surprisingly great for this, the articulating lugs move and expand with the wrist while lifting and keep the wat...
Brilliant.
I literally just finished my weekly 2 mile run, sans timepiece due to the fact that the Reverso I was anticipating ended up being sent back to the seller as a result of some customs stupidity.... Keep livin' healthy, cheers, Filip ...
Who knows, I sure hope so....
But now it's up to the seller in Poland to determine how to proceed, plus it's done through Chrono24 which might present its own restrictions.... I got the nearly 20 year old Sun-Moon in white gold, with the transparent case back. Here's my post from a fe...
That stinks, to put it mildly. What exactly was the customs issue…
the paperwork details of the watch, or did it have a leather strap attached (because that’s an issue in California particularly, I believe)?
Paperwork....
The irony is, I deliberately had him ship the watch without a strap because of knowing how strict they are with leather strap regulations here! We'll see what happens now, I have no idea whatsoever.... Cheers, Filip
Amazing watch, let alone gym watch.
What are your thoughts on the new Swordfish version?
Love the new swordfish! The fired blue though is hard to photograph so excited to see it in person before really forming an opinion
The blue can go to almost black in some lights so I think it's going to awesome irl.
A amazing and beautiful DB
I wouldn’t dear to wear this to the gym. To scared to scratch it 🫣
Thanks! I feared the same and used to always take my watch off but it seems like gyms have gotten child safety makeovers the last few years
Everything is padded, rubberized, and made of plastic/nylon 😂
Beautiful watch.
They are made robust. Their ambassadors wear db28s playing tennis. Enjoy!
That really is a stunning looking watch.
The articulating lugs always fascinate me as to just how simple yet clever they are, I didn't realise this was a DB 28 as don't know too much about DeBethune so I usually think of this one as the Star Trek watch. Wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc
Thank you! The lugs are a really great wearability feature. I forget they are even a thing until I swap to a normal watch and notice they are both less comfortable and move around more at the same time
Though, I do have a nagging thought that an elastic strap might accomplish the same 😂 one of these days I need to get an elastic strap for one of my watches ...
I’m a big DB fan, especially the 28 line including yours.
But I never thought of it as tough enough to take to gym. I guess it depends what you do in gym, but looks like you do everything. Very impressive, you and watch 💪🏽.
Hahaha, thanks, not that tough or in shape but I make up for it with clumsiness 😂
I'm old and slow now so not pushing too hard the benefit of which that means I can downgrade to something a little lighter duty than a Rolex. I've already replaced the crystal once and and broke a rib while wearing the DB28 skiing but the watch keeps on g...
