What to know

The DB25xs Sand Winds, reference DB25VxsTiV2S5, brings De Bethune’s random-guilloché technique to a yellow titanium dial with white-gold inserts. Brown polished titanium hour markers and hands deepen the desert palette. Its polished Grade 5 titanium case measures 40.6 mm across and only 8.8 mm thick, with integrated hollowed lugs, sapphire crystals and 3 ATM water resistance.
