News: De Bethune Launches Certified Pre-Owned Online Boutique

Following the steps of other independent watchmaking brands like Urwerk or MB&F, De Bethune finally decided to jump on the Certified Pre-Owned bandwagon. Whether you are looking for a rare De Bethune from the past or you just can’t find a current one you like at an authorized dealer anymore, this new offering will make your dreams of owning a De Bethune come true no matter what. The De Bethune Certified Pre-Owned online boutique is the perfect place to look for that one particular watch.

The De Bethune Certified Pre-Owned is home to a specially curated collection of watches, which have been carefully refurbished and tested by their own watchmakers. This includes cleaning, re-polishing, serving the movement, and testing for accuracy. Pretty much like buying a Certified Pre-Owned Apple computer that is just like buying a brand new one.

In today’s market, there is a plethora of pre-owned sellers, traders, flippers, and questionable websites offering watches that have not been checked, certified, or tested. These sellers only offer their own unofficial warranty, which could mean first of all, that any repairs are being conducted by watchmakers not trained to work on De Bethune watches. Second, when timepieces of the caliber of a De Bethune are serviced by independent watchmakers, it is very likely that if parts need to be replaced, some of these parts could be retrofitted and are not from De Bethune.

That brings up the question:

Would you take your Ferrari to an unofficial garage and have Ford parts retro-fitted to it?

Or as you typically have heard, “if the offer sounds too good to be true, it usually is.”

Therefore, why take the risk when you can purchase your new timepiece with the comfort and knowledge you have bought it straight from the brand. This is why De Bethune Certified Pre-Owned guarantees each watch and gives them a new Manufacture two-year international Pre-Owned warranty. Additionally, all purchases include a brand new strap, the correct De Bethune box, Certified Pre-Owned warranty card, and even free shipping.

Their current offering includes the following five watches at very nice prices.
