De Bethune

De Bethune is a Swiss watch brand. It was founded in 2002 by David Zanetta, a collector with a passion for art, history and timepieces, and Denis Flageollet, the son, grandson and great-grandson of watchmakers. The two sought to blend time-honoured skills and the latest scientific breakthroughs, devoted to the service of chronometric precision. De Bethune sees itself as a research and development tool, a laboratory making use of cutting-edge technologies implemented in the spirit of the 18th century masterwatchmakers.
