De Bethune watches are the ultimate in independent watchmaking design, engineering, and imagination. Since 2002, master watchmaker Denis Flageollet has created nearly 30 unique in-house calibers for over 150 distinct models of De Bethune watch. With production ranging from a peak of only 450 watches annually to today's rate of 150 pieces per year, exclusivity is assured for watch collectors who seek absolute innovation and fully-realized artistic ambition.

Luxury watch collectors who favor innovation, attention to detail, imagination, and rarity will find all of those qualities in the timepieces of De Bethune. Compared to the roughy 900 watches produced annually by F.P. Journe, De Bethune's factory issues roughly 150 pieces per year, and even its peak output of 400-450 watches per year places the brand from L' Auberson among the most exclusive watchmakers per year. Custom dials, lugs, colors, materials, and even engraving are available for discerning collectors, and even preowned watches can be updated to suit the tastes of their new owners when the watches return to the factory for service.

De Bethune produces all of its dials, cases, and movements. This sets the haute horlogerie brand apart from the many independent watch brands that depend on outside suppliers to procure the most important parts of their products. De Bethune is an engineering house that takes great pride in its technical innovations. Over a dozen unique balance wheels, innovative shock protection, hi-beat tourbillon regulators, high complications, and breakthroughs in chronometry set this brand apart from rivals who stress branding efforts and aesthetics above all.

Traditional movement finish lies at the core of De Bethune's approach to design. While cases, dials, and lugs often feature spectacular and avant garde style, the in-house calibers of De Bethune employ traditional haut-de-gamme detailing. Cotes de Geneve become the richer and more luminous "Cotes De Bethune," and microlite hairline engraving adds complexity to surfaces. Abundant black polishing of steel and titanium surfaces yields spectacular effects on both dials and movements. Vast swathes of fine perlage and mirror-chamfered anglage do justice to Swiss watchmaking tradition. De Bethune's signature spherical moonphase, fired blue titanium, and hand-engraved dials speak to equal regard for tradition and innovation.
