De Bethune presents Dream Watch 5 Tourbillon ‘Season 1’
This timepiece is the result of a genuine challenge issued to De Bethune by American star Swizz Beatz, who spontaneously contacted De Bethune in 2020 and dared the watchmaker to create a totally different Dream Watch 5. Master Watchmaker and brand founder Denis Flageollet set to work with his team on creating a timepiece – limited to just 10 pieces – that would convey his resolutely futuristic vision of the watchmaking art. The dial side reveals the small two-tone sphere indicating the moon phases. Composed of two assembled and polished half-spheres in blued steel and palladium, it guides the eye towards the minimalist digital display of the hours and minutes, visible through a hand-cut cabochon-shaped crystal. On the back, the sapphire crystal creates the illusion of a magnifying glass effect enabling even greater appreciation of the beauty and elegance exuded by the DB2149 calibre and its tourbillon, fully revealed for the first time.
