What is the history of Paul Picot watches?

Accepted Answer

Here is an overview of the history of Paul Picot watches. In 1976, Italian entrepreneur Mario Boiocchi established the company in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. He named his brand after Paul Picot, an 18th-century clockmaker. When the company launched, the watchmaking world was in the midst of the quartz crisis, with consumers turning away from traditional mechanical watches in favor of quartz models. While other watchmakers were experiencing financial problems, Paul Picot found success by offering a mix of quartz and mechanical watches crafted using traditional techniques and fine materials. During the 1980s, Paul Picot introduced its now iconic Seahawk diver's watch, a hybrid timepiece that combined automatic movement with mechanical components. As interest in pure mechanical watches grew during the 2000s, Paul Picot responded with new lines, including the Paul Picot Grand Complication and the Paul Picot Tonneau. The company continues to manufacture watches in La Chaux-de-Fonds today. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of watches.
