Review of DeWitt Twenty-8-Eight Watch
The past two years have been a bit difficult for DeWitt. As a Swiss watch maker, they used to make not a few attractive luxury watches that made what Dewitte was. But now this brand still has a hard time and they are struggling to move on.
One shining point of Dewitt watches is the castle rimmed” bezels which always deliver a instant royal feel. And Dewitt used to release highly complicated watches that were beautiful and interesting.However, it seems that Dewitt walks a bit far from its way with some boring new models. Take DeWitt Twenty-8-Eight Watch for example. It really pales before the brand’s exclusive regal looking watches and looks like a cheap replica watch.
Sized at 43mm, the watch is presented on 18k rose gold. Aside from an the guilloche-engraved complex dial and the signature columns at watch sides, the watch has no big shining points. The big problem, in my problem, is that it is watch has no soul and clear theme. According to Dewitt, the designs on this watch is part of their brand evolution.While I agree that the brand need mid-priced models to hold on, I am afraid they are on a wrong way as they may lose their most important customer section.
And I notices that the hands are too small and short for the dial. What is wrong with Dewitt watches. The watch is powered by DeWitt caliber DWT8AU automatic movement. The watch will be limited to 500 pieces. I worry about the sales of this piece given it has no soul and lovable style.
