´Horological Alchemy` by Denis Flageollet the (te ´Horological Alchemy` by Denis Flageollet the (technical) master mind behind De Bethune. He launched the brand together with David Zanetta in 2002. Before he was trained as a watchmaker and micro-mechanic, worked with Michel Parmigiani and founded with Francois-Paul Journe the THA company … "This book is my attempt to make sense of watchmaking in the 21st century, to open pathways that might inspire inventiveness and audacity in the new generation. To transmit through my own experience the lessons of history, of art mechanics and today’s technological potentialities. It is my way of taking part in finding a balance between craftsmanship, art, transmission, industry, technology and economics.” Denis Flageollet The Eclecticum: The book is available in French and English – a must read we think (even when we didn´t see it yet), and we will order ours as soon as it is available in our market 😊 Watch of the day, to feature the book, is the most interesting and eclectic ´DB21 Maxichrono Réédition` introduced in 2019. The 1st version (back in 2006) was a radical approach of a pure chronograph – five hands mounted on a single central axis and controlled by a simple single pusher – and so is the 2nd one as well. #BeEclectic #HorologicalAlchemy #DenisFlageollet #DeBethune #DB21MaxichronoReedition #DB21Maxichrono #Maxichrono #CentralAxisChronograph #WatchCollector #watchfam #watchlover #watchesofinstagram #watchphotography #wristwatch #mechanicalwatch #Uhren #HauteHorlogerie #Uhrmacher #WatchBooks

´Eclectic Sunday`: for today we have chosen a wat ´Eclectic Sunday`: for today we have chosen a watch with 8 HZ operating frequency that doesn´t want to please everyone for its beauty. The ´L.U. Chopard 8HZ Chronometer` (LE of 100) is more like a “tool” with a dedicated design approach. A certified chronometer, which is no surprise for connoisseurs if they are aware that Mr. Scheufele (Chopard & Ferdinand Berthoud) is behind the project – no shortcuts. #EclecticSunday #Chronometer #8HZchronometer #Chopard #CertifiedChronometer #BeEclectic #WatchCollector #watchfam #watchlover #watchesofinstagram #watchphotography #wristwatch #mechanicalwatch #Uhren #HybridSiliciumEscapement
