Dream Watch
A true wrist sculpture, the Dream Watch 5 is a continuation of the Maison’s research into shapes, materials and colours. The mechanics fade into the background so as to ensure an even more beautiful expression design. The display of the hour, minute and moon phase functions almost vanishes. As the creations progress, design is progressively refined in favor of a curved deltoid motif, a major element in the aesthetic of the collection and more generally of De Bethune watches.
