About this reference

Like a sculpted titanium spaceship, this timepiece plays with light through its intricate materials and dial architecture. The deep glow of blued, hand-polished titanium contrasts with the sparkle of white gold and diamond stars, evoking a starry sky. Convex and concave curves guide the eye to the silver hours and minutes disks. Inspired by a fusion of a smartphone and a mechanical pocket watch, De Bethune once again defies conventions.
