It is clear to the really serious watch aficionado that, when you buy a De Bethune watch, you are simply buying perfection. A watch that combines a total respect for watchmaking tradition, state-of-the-art technology and precision with purist design.

De Bethune was founded by the well-known watch expert David Zanetta and master watchmaker Denis Flageollet. It is the perfect blend of Zanetta’s creativity, vast knowledge of timepieces and watchmaking history, and Flageollet’s horological genius and years of experience restoring historic timepieces.

For Zanetta and Flageollet, the object of the exercise was to achieve a total symbiosis of the internal and external elements of a watch - creating, above all, high precision watches that are not only a pleasure to look at but are also easy to read, well adapted and agreeable to wear, made from the best quality materials and painstakingly completed and finished.

It is this very commitment and uncompromising resolution never to accept anything less than perfection that is so greatly valued and appreciated by all owners and collectors of De Bethune watches, and is the reason why there are many today who aspire to ownership of a De Bethune timepiece.

Encompassing a masterly use of metals, forms and finishes, De Bethune timepieces fit into four main categories: The De Bethune Classics, Dream Watches, Dress Watches and Sportives. Have a look at these fabulous De Bethune timepieces below:
