A Letter to Time,
created for you.
A personal watch, an occasion, a story to put into words. A bespoke Letter to Time brings drawing and handwriting together in an original work on paper. Begin by exploring its possible scale.
Accurate paper proportions · illustrative surrounds. The 120 cm field stays fixed when you change formats or finish. Frame and passepartout bands are schematic screen treatments, not measured external dimensions or a life-size display.
Colour studies only, applied to the schematic surrounds. They do not describe a verified frame material, product or available option.

Approximately twice the paper area of A4. The composition is developed for the commission.

Your watch. Your story.
A composition of its own.
Tell the Studio about the timepiece, the occasion and any words you would like the work to hold. The format and presentation can then be discussed in relation to the composition.
The sheets above compare paper dimensions. The composition is created for each commission; the existing De Bethune artwork is a reference to the artistic language, rather than an image offered in four sizes.

Write to the Studio with the selected paper format. You can discuss the watch, the story and the presentation without completing the structured brief first.
