A contemporary watch for the vintage watch aficionado

The Bethany offers a classic user experience without the associated scarcity.

Mid-20th century watchmaking featured prominent use of delicately produced gilt dials; today the collector’s market demands a high price for even a modest example. The Bethany offers a true gilt dial, in negative relief, with an ink-black coating that is chemically stable. After being abandoned by the industry in favor of more modern processes, Fuentes Watch Company has brought the gilt dial back to the market in better form than ever.

Only 300 units will be produced. If you love gilt Submariners, old Heuers, and pilot watches, then you’ll love the Bethany.
