De Bethune
Founded in 2002 by David Zanetta and Denis Flageollet, De Bethune quickly flourished in the watch industry by merging both peerless aesthetic with the latest horological breakthroughs. The deceptively simple elegance of their designs serves well in magnifying the complexity of the materials and processes involved in the creation of their timepieces. As De Bethune crafts an extremely limited amount of timepieces per year, the philosophy of the company has been to create better rather than more, and to draw inspiration from age-old expertise in order to constantly invent the future.
The company won the 2011 'Aiguille D’Or', the highest distinction awarded by Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix) for its DB28 model.
