DeWitt Blackstream Triple Complication GMT3 is the brand’s latest addition to their Academia Collection. This sportswatch is made specially for young and dynamic men. In a black and streamlined design, the watch is powered by a self-winding mechanical movement (42-hour power reserve ). The watch is in a 44mm case that is crafted from titanium, black PVD and black rubber. The water-resistance of the watch is down to 50 meters. This novel is mounted on a black rubber strap with a special DeWitt “imperial columns” motif. Limited to 250 pieces.

In a move towards greater classicism, DeWitt’s emblematic imperial columns, the brand’s veritable signature, have become more discreet in its new Twenty-8-Eight collection; the pink gold case is also finer than in the past. A truly harmonious creation that reveals a magnificent flambé zone and delicate radiating pattern under its velvety black dial. With DeWitt, tradition is never far away: the Twenty-8-Eight pays tribute to the 28 Floréal, the day on which the Senate of Republican France proclaimed Napoleon Bonaparte – Jérôme DeWitt’s illustrious ancestor – as “Emperor of the French people”. It can hardly be a coincidence that the Twenty-8-Eight was designed on … 28 August! Limited edition of 500.

Dewitt is delighted to introduce their captivating luxury timepiece, Twenty-8-Eight Automatic. This timepiece is looks very expensive on it’s 43 mm, 18K pink gold case. The dial has a flame pattern that perfectly compliments the over-all appearance of the watch. According to the brand, this pays homage to the “28 Floreal,” the date when Napoleon was declared “Emperor of the French people.” Limited to 500 pieces, for the $10,000 or so, I’m very sure that this will be easily sold out on its first launch. ~$10,000.

WX-1 highlights the creativity of DeWitt which is celebrating its 5th anniversary this year. An authentic machine representing several contemporary worlds, the pulsating heart of the WX-1 is equipped with a vertical flying tourbillon with a carriage performing one revolution per minute and visible through a cylindrical “chimney” located on the back of the case.

The mechanical hand-wound movement comprises a parallel going train with five barrels ensuring a 21-day (approximately 504-hour) power reserve. The parts making up this engine – barrels, gear train, tourbillon carriage, power-reserve indicator and winding device – are all arranged in vertical order. {Timezone}
