What to know
De Bethune’s DB28xs Sea Tourbillon, reference DB28xsT, translates the colour and texture of open water into blued Grade 5 titanium. Random guilloché covers the bridge elements, while polished titanium hands and markers preserve legibility. The mirror-polished titanium case is 38.7 mm wide and 8 mm thick, using the manufacture’s articulated floating lugs and offering 3 ATM water resistance.

The hand-wound DB2009V7 calibre contains 239 parts and 33 jewels. Its ultra-light titanium tourbillon completes one rotation in 30 seconds, while the movement runs at 36,000 vibrations per hour. Twin self-regulating barrels provide five days of reserve, combining performance with the compact proportions of the DB28xs platform.
