De Bethune’s new DB16 attributes contemporary architecture of the DB2509 calibre to it being built around a 30” tourbillon in silicon and titanium. It beats at 36,000 vph, comprising 64 parts weighing a total 0.18 grams. The movement is also equipped with a power indicator, a seconds indication, and a retrograde moon-phase indicator that facilitates setting the moon to the exact date. Hidden on the back of the watch, a classically understated dial on which the perpetual calendar and moon-phase displays, enhanced by the Manufacture’s characteristic silver-toned guilloché pattern.
