i love all their watches, but the DB25 with blue TI dial is the most impressive for me , the new lugs on other watches is not a winner for me. Thanks for posting. Faisal

not so much technically wise but concept wise....... Mo

It's known by everybody that DeBethune creations are something from another world. Outstanding finish and high quality details. I like them. Thanks for sharing the fantastic report. Vte

kind words I did the post with passion..really enjoyed it... Mo

Wow Mo, what a report. Although too big for me to wear I love the DeBethune wacthes I want to see that starry sky and dive in myself ! Don

really the "in metal"experience only adds to this magnificent watch. I must say that De Bethune watches are very very difficult to photograph. Glad you liked it, Mo

article. The 15 also makes my heart beat a little faster too, but there are many beautiful watches here. Thanks for taking us to the event too. Best, Tim

as I said I really enjoyed taking the pics and writing a line or 2. Yours,Mo.

Wow, these are 2 great watches! DB is among my favourite in the Independants offer for their originality. A pity that sometimes I fear their watches are a bit too big for me, because I would have already jumped on another one, the DB Vetrois, the sporty o...

I first have to see it in the flesh, and if it confirms me my first impression, let's jump on it! Best, my friend. Nicolas

Well try to check it soon....trust me you won t be disappointed...... Moooooo

which one attracts you the most? Mo

But a bit too large for me. The Celestial you show is my favourite, but you know me, when it comes to celestial dials... Best, Nicolas

For a great post. The colour in the pieces are stunning and like a few other members have already stated the DB15 is most definately my favourite. This message has been edited by Topcat30093 on 2010-07-01 12:07:10
