Pilot / Aviation Watches
It all began here in 2016 when I launched the brand. My version of a pilot watch - the Bergstrom is a manual wind watch with a Swiss movement. Designed and assembled in Austin by me. A beautifully designed coin edge bezel and cathedral style hands with SuperLuminova. No matter which version you have, you'll showcase vintage charm and elegance anytime you put on a Bergstrom.
A pilot watch
With History and Depth
Limited to 300 per version, the Bergstrom manual wind watch is a fantastic pilot style watch. An aviation watch that you interact with each morning to wind up for your day. A 41.5mm case with the elegance of a coin-edge bezel, an open case back to reveal the highly accurate and reliable Swiss movement, and an oversized crown to get your day going.

A pure passion for watches
My name Steven Lee and I've had a lifelong love affair with the poeticism, timelessness and inspirational beauty of mechanical watches. From the moment of my first watch purchase as a youngster (around 8), to being gifted by my mother my grandfather's old Wyler mechanical watch, I knew that watches were going to be one of the most central themes in my life.
This passion inspired me as a collector that led me around Europe on a personal quest to uncover more of the history behind watchmaking and the incredible brands that have hundreds of years of combined history.The DuFrane motto is “history remembers those who are a little bit different.” From bold, risk takers to extravagant characters, every great legacy has a mark of distinction that makes them truly unique.
Our watch designs embody a sense of adventure, freedom and desire to live life to the fullest. There are 86,400 seconds each day, how will you spend yours? Adventure Awaits.
