A refined and highly contemporary interpretation of the DB28, combining De Bethune’s signature floating-lug case with the sculptural Steel Wheels architecture in a more wearable 38.7 mm format. Full set, 2025, like new condition.
Offered here is the De Bethune DB28 XS Steel Wheels, one of the most elegant and wearable expressions of the modern DB28 family. Presented as a 2025 full set in like new condition, this example showcases the distinctive polished wheels dial, a design that reveals the mechanical architecture of the watch while preserving the balance, lightness, and futuristic restraint for which De Bethune is celebrated.
The defining feature of the watch is its openworked dial construction, centred on the brand’s sculptural delta bridge and exposed wheel train. The polished titanium surfaces, visible gearing, and vivid blued hands create a striking contrast, giving the watch both depth and clarity on the wrist. The result is unmistakably De Bethune: technical, architectural, and highly refined, yet surprisingly clean in its overall execution.
Housed in a polished grade 5 titanium case with the maison’s patented floating lugs and crown at 12 o’clock, the DB28 XS offers exceptional comfort together with a strong visual identity. At 38.7 mm in diameter and just 8 mm thick, it brings the signature DB28 design into a more compact and versatile format without losing any of its presence. More than a contemporary independent watch, the DB28 XS Steel Wheels is a collector’s piece — innovative, instantly recognizable, and representative of one of the most important creative watchmakers of the modern era.
