Briston est une marque française née d'un esprit très britannique. Depuis les flèches de rêve d'Oxford et de Cambridge et des courses de bateaux glissant le long des terrains de cricket et de polo, cet esprit sport chic est l'incarnation du style britannique depuis la reine Victoria. Ce style de vie chic mais décontracté et ses excentricités occasionnelles ont également été une grande source d'inspiration pour le style «preppy» qui a pris naissance dans les universités de l'Ivy League sur la côte est des États-Unis. C'est cet esprit, allié à son ADN horloger, qui donne à Briston son style unique.
