01 · The story

Littlefield:
Austin's first office building

The Littlefield is named after Austin's first office building, built in 1912. This is really a tool watch for those who conduct business in multiple timezones, so it aligns to the use of such an historic Austin building.

When I think of Austin and the incredible history, weirdness, and character of the city, and see how it has evolved today into sky scrapers, corporate HQ, and more technology than ever seemed possible, it led me down the path of expanding and challenging DuFrane offerings as well.

07 · The shop

Made in Austin

I've had a lifelong love affair with mechanical watches. From my first watch at age 8 to inheriting my grandfather's old Wyler from my mother, they've always been central to my life.

Every DuFrane is built by hand in my Austin shop. I regulate each movement. I test every piece.
