2026 De Bethune DB28 43MM Skeleton Dial Leather Strap (DB28GSV2BB)

Make: De Bethune Model: DB28 Year: 2026 Papers: Yes Box: Yes

The seller represents this timepiece as being in very good condition. It includes the box, additional items, an additional strap, and papers.

This timepiece is in pristine condition with no signs of wear. It comes as a complete set including box, travel case, extra rubber strap with clasp, and warranty papers dated August 2026. MSRP: approximately 131,920 USD.


Unveiled at Watches & Wonders 2025 as the evolution of the sport line that began in 2019 with the Grand Bleu, the DB28GS Swordfish is a 44mm diving watch in black zirconium and Grade 5 titanium measuring 12.8mm in thickness — a bi-chromatic study in deep black and De Bethune's signature celestial blue, with blued titanium details and 12 blue spherical hour markers on the unidirectional rotating bezel. The open-worked dial reveals the DB2080 movement architecture throughout, with a large delta-shaped titanium barrel bridge adorned with Microlight engravings, blued titanium borders, and a mirror-polished bridge over the balance wheel. Most remarkably, the Swordfish houses a fully mechanical lighting system operating on the dynamo principle: a push-button at 6 o'clock activates a small gear driven by the twin barrel, which through a miniature dynamo diffuses white light from the four corners of the dial — no electronics, no battery. A power reserve indicator sits between 9 and 10 o'clock; the crown is positioned at 12 o'clock with mobile cradle floating lugs for wrist comfort. Presented on a blue textile strap with hardened stainless steel folding clasp, with an additional rubber strap included. Retailing at approximately 131,920 USD, this example is offered meaningfully below current retail. The hand-wound DB2080 comprises 400 parts and 51 jewels with a triple shock-absorbing system, titanium balance wheel with white gold inserts, silicon escape wheel, and self-regulating twin barrels, beating at 28,800 vph (4 Hz), delivering 5 days of power reserve, water-resistant to 100 meters.
