“Because time passes quickly, and because sometimes it’s just the right moment for a change of course, and because you really have to follow your dreams” – Brice Jaunet, Founder – Briston Watches
Brice Jaunet founded Briston watches after 15 years in the watchmaking industry. He was driven by legacy of his grandfather (co-founder of the NewMan brand in 1967,) along with a strong entrepreneurial spirit ever since his early childhood Brice has always strived for more! Bringing together several Swiss designer professional acquaintances he created a brand that best reflected his thoughts, research and most of all his personality.
As a previous student of Oxford he used a lot of his experiences to design his watches especially in his passion for sport and his taste for travel. This is what gives the Briston brand its sporty, chic and slightly quirky spirit that can be seen throughout the collections.
