BOUTIQUE
DE BETHUNE
Maestri’Art
The Maestri’Art II dial evokes the art of
Asian etchings with a hand-engraved dial in
electric blue titanium accented with gold. In
developing these artistic creations, De Bethune
highlights the work of the greatest artisans in
their respective crafts as interpreted in three-
dimensional relief by the engraving artist
Michèle Rothen. Deep blues and violets hues
create a striking pageantry from the dial side,
while the highly technical and easily recognized
De Bethune caliber DB 2005 is visible through
the sapphire back. Retail price $125,000.
