Having launched a few models in the first fiscal year, with the first model being the DB1 single-button chronograph, the firm also released the DB5 such as the present example featuring essentially the same aesthetic as the DB2, however upgraded with center seconds.
These early models featured ogival lugs that has been embedded in the brands appeal consistent with some models that are still in production today. It is important to mention that the aesthetics and DNA has never been shifted from where the brand started but refined over the years, making De Bethune timepieces a class on its own.
The present DB5Y in yellow gold is a stunning yet simple timepiece. Featuring a 42mm case, the guilloché dial is further complimented with blue painted Roman numerals and blued steel Breguet-style hands. A perfect fusion between the past and future. Numbered 006 on the case, the present example is one of the earliest examples of the reference to ever leave the manufacture, making this rare and desirable example even more attractive. Offered with its full set of accessories, a rare trait on its own for these early examples, it is further delivered with two period correct catalogues.
